“Imagine a book somewhere between American Gods and Faulkner…Absolutely worth your time.”

Patrick Rothfuss, #1 New York Times bestselling author


In this valley songs live … and kill.

No one knows where the Tufa came from or how they ended up in the mountains of east Tennessee. When the first Europeans came to the Smoky Mountains, the Tufa were already there. Dark-haired and enigmatic, they live quietly in the hills and valleys of Cloud County, their origins lost to history. But there are clues in their music, hidden in the songs they have passed down for generations.

Private Bronwyn Hyatt, a true daughter of the Tufa, has returned from Iraq, wounded in body and spirit, but her troubles are far from over. Cryptic omens warn of impending tragedy, while a restless “haint” has followed her home from the war. Worse yet, Bronwyn has lost touch with herself and with the music that was once a part of her life. With death stalking her family, will she ever again join in the song of her people and let it lift her onto the night winds?

    At the end of this story I was absolutely desperate to read the next one. At first I felt that it wasn't fantasy enough, but as the Tufa secrets begun to surface, the apparent normalcy of the setting makes the whole situation that much more vivid. Very well done.
