"Bella Anderson takes early retirement froma university teaching position to live in the community of her ancestors in the Smoky Mountains. She yearns for time to write in the peace of her beloved 120 year old home, Drellag Caban, high on a mountain near Cades Cove. Mysterious ATV sounds are more unpredictable than the sharp turns on the narrow road that leads up to her eighty acres. Destructive activity jolts her into engagement with folks in the community. Visits from the sheriff and local grocer, in response to the menacing actions, bring their own possibilities of change in the life of this young widow."--
