Eli Mercer comes home to The Wilds, North Carolina carrying the kind of failure a man hopes the mountains will hide. Instead, the old warnings he grew up hearing begin to prove themselves true.
When a boy disappears on the ridges above Lake Jocassee and comes back talking about lantern light, humming in the dark, and something circling just out of sight, Eli points his suspicion at Boone Cutter-the feared mountain man half the county already blames for everything it cannot explain. But the deeper Eli digs into Horsepasture country, the more he learns that Boone is not the danger he thought he was.
What waits in the mountains is older than rumor, crueler than folklore, and closer to human hands than anyone in The Wilds wants to admit.
Set in the rugged Blue Ridge country above Lake Jocassee, The Wilds Above Jocassee is an Appalachian mountain suspense novel about grief, pride, place-memory, and the kind of warning people only learn to respect after it costs them something.
