Clinch Mountain Echoes is a gripping tale of betrayal, prejudice, budding young love, wartime memories, abductions, and murder in a small Appalachian community. From years past, echoes of wrenching losses—lost innocence, loves, and lives—reverberate anew in Southwest Virginia. Residents of Powell County endure ills and heartaches that human flesh and spirit are heir to, but some face daunting circumstances born of trying, troubling repercussions from their past. Can a deceived and deserted young woman, a persecuted Melungeon family, and a grieving boy overcome soul-wrenching heartache and sadness? A unique bond forms between the mourning boy and a reclusive war veteran who suffers from his own losses and wartime memories. Will that bond help comfort each of them, lessen their sorrow and anger, and dispel haunting memories? Can effects of physical and emotional threats be lessened by friendship, acceptance, and forgiveness? Must the wronged seek their just revenge, or will a final echo surface with fitting retribution for a lecherous Clinch Mountain murderer?
