Abstract |
"Located in the southern Appalachian Mountains of Franklin, North Carolina, Murmur is the narrative of a horrific murder, and the shocking mystery threatening a way of life in the remote location of White Rock Mountain and Hickory Gap ... Without electricity, telephone service, or running water, Sonny Branch is in her element. Resisting modern amenities and lifestyle, she is a strong and capable mountain woman. Love and despair brings Sonny Branch to her knees when outsiders threaten the kinship for all of the colorful characters living in this small mountain commune"--Page 4 of cover. |
