New Novel from Award-Winning Author R.L. Herron
No one knows how long the Cherokee people have lived in the Smoky Mountains of eastern Tennessee, although artifacts have been found indicating their ancestors were there more than 11,000 years ago...at the end of the last Ice Age.
After the discovery of gold in Cherokee territory, one of the most disgraceful events in American history began...the forcible removal of all Cherokee from land they had owned and lived on for generations. More than 4,000 men, women and children died on the brutal 1200 mile forced march in the dead of winter. It has gone down in history as "The Trail of Tears."
Award-winning author R.L. Herron has created a spellbinding tale based on the curse of an assassinated Cherokee prophet that has followed one American family for eight generations with relentless, supernatural horror.
