ECHOES OF AN UNCIVIL WAR - Paperback Thriller-Suspense - Paperback

by James Ryan (Author)

A forgotten valley in East Tennessee hides a past few are willing to confront. Once the site of a thriving early-twentieth-century campus, the land is reborn in 1973 as a luxury resort. But beneath its polished surface lies a history soaked in loss, betrayal, and war. As Tad uncovers the story of Confederate General William Blackwell, disturbing truths emerge-twists of history so unsettling they seem impossible...until the evidence begins to surface.

Centuries of tragedy refuse to stay buried. From the horrors of the Civil War and the haunting legacy of the Trail of Tears to the quiet hills of modern-day East Tennessee, a dark history waits to be uncovered. When Tad O'Banion is drawn back to the land he once called home, he is pulled into a web of secrets that blurs the line between truth and legend-and forces him to question everything he believes.

With time running out, Tad and his friends must unravel the past to save Moon Dove-a young Indian woman whose fate may be bound to the valley itself.
