Produktbeschreibung

Laurel Valley is a community in the Carolina hills. Nobody knows why, but Montgomerys and Capshaws have been killing each other for over one hundred years. On a peaceful Sunday morning, Lee Montgomery drove his wife, mother-in-law, and four children to church. The youngest was four-year-old Olin Montgomery, the apple of the familys eye. When Lee reached the ford at Bloody Creek, the horses spooked and would not cross. Lee had the instincts of a wild animal. Something was amiss. Pistol in hand, he got out of the wagon to search the thick brush enveloping the trail. A dozen guns fired in unison, shredding the flesh of the Montgomery family. All was massacred, except Olin, whose little body was shielded by his grandmother. Fifteen years later, Olin has grown into manhood. It was his lifes mission to get revenge for his familys murder until he meets Etta, the daughter of the Capshaw clans patriarch. Their love is doomed by their families hatred. Bloody Creek is Romeo and Juliet set in the crossfire of a Hatfield/McCoy feud. This time, will the young lovers survive?

Autorenporträt

Born in the hills of North Carolina, where tales of the past were kept wildly alive by an extended family of storytellers, Robert Burns Clark knows a thing or two himself about telling a story. After graduating from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the School of Law, Clark made a movie called Moonrunners and, shortly after, moved his family to California to continue his writing pursuits. A few years later, Moonruners was adapted into the Dukes of Hazzard television series. Clark has written, rewritten, or edited over forty episodes of prime-time television, including The Dukes of Hazzard, Tour of Duty, The Class of 61, and Hardball. He has written and produced several movies of the week. His first novel, Pittsburg Landing, received critical acclaim and was awarded an Honorable Mention by the San Francisco Book Festival.
