Description

A young boy, Michael Dunne, is left to protect himself and his baby sister as their mother spirals out of control. He and his sister are taken in to raise by their paternal grandparents. They live in the Cleveland, Ohio of the 1950s until an opportunity arises to return the family to their West Virginian roots. The children and grandparents settle in Mill Creek hollow, far from the dangers of the changing city, organized crime, and the mother's mental illness. During those early years, another young man, Jed Weiser, was raised in a hillbilly dysfunctional family. He kills a feuding clan's son and daughter and runs off to the Army to escape punishment. While a prisoner of war, he signs a confession under torture, accusing him of war crimes against the Koreans. After his discharge, he becomes more and more unstable, and begins killing for gain and pleasure. In this coming of age story set during the 1950s, one young man overcomes adversity and grows strong on old time religion, kinship, country music, and young love; while the other becomes more dangerous and unstable. Their paths collide and only one will make it through. A novel of survival on many levels, the story of Mill Creek as told through the eyes of a young boy will haunt you.
