On a lush mountaintop trapped in time, three women must defy the traditions that have held them captive . . .
Rich with love and loss, Shiner uncovers two generations' worth of Appalachian heartbreak and resolve through its chorus of three unforgettable voices: a bold daughter, a reclusive housewife, and a lovesick moonshiner, to reveal a taut and smoldering story of modern female myth-making in a land of men, and one young woman who must open her eyes.
“[A] wrenching testament, told in language as incandescent as smoldering coal. This is not a despairing book, but a hopeful one, of Appalachian women taking back their life stories.” -- New York Times Book Review
