The Last Moonshiner’s Daughter

di Hazel Winterbrook (Autore)

Take Me Away Fiction, 2026

In a town built on secrets, the truth can be as dangerous as the mountain itself. In the mist-shrouded mountains of North Carolina, Wren Calloway has lived alone in Blackwing Hollow ever since her grandmother's death. The townsfolk call her the "witch girl" behind their hands, but Wren survives the way generations before her did—on the strength of the land, the medicinal plants she harvests, and the old moonshining craft her father taught her before he vanished without a trace. Everyone believes he abandoned her. Wren has never believed the easy version of a hard truth. When the body of a powerful local businessman is found near her cabin, suspicion ripples through the hollow, stirring up old resentments and long-buried grudges. The only person to question the town's certainty is Elias Mercer—heir to the wealthiest family in Blackwing Hollow, raised in a world Wren was never allowed to enter. Drawn to her quiet resilience, he risks his family's ire to defend her, even as the town closes ranks. As Wren fights to clear her name, she uncovers generations of Mercer–Calloway history entwined with the hollow's darkest secrets—feuds born in prohibition days, debts paid in blood, and the real story behind her father's disappearance. The mountains keep their memories, and some truths echo louder than gunshots in the dark. To survive, Wren must decide not only whom to trust, but which ghosts deserve to be unearthed.
