Description

The Shelton Laurel Massacre is a haunting and deeply personal account of one of the darkest moments in American history. In 1863, Confederate troops brutally executed thirteen men and boys suspected of Unionism in western North Carolina. This tragic event is told through the voices of five individuals who lived through it - each with their own unique perspective on love, hate, and survival. The story is woven from the accounts of a colonel's wife, a jealous second-in-command, a mountain woman, a conscript, and a mute girl whose folk magic yields an unexpected result. Through their voices, we gain an intimate glimpse into the lives of those caught up in history's web, torn between loyalty and survival. This powerful and thought-provoking novel offers a unique perspective on one of the most infamous events of the American Civil War.
