About This Book

This is the story of revenge, mountain style. It is not a mystery in the truest sense of the word and it is not a love story, but it has elements of both. The rugged and individualistic people of the Blue Ridge mountains will wait patiently for the courts to mete out justice, but if that justice is too slow in coming, or if justice should miscarry because of slick lawyers and poor laws, then a vaccum is created--in time, every vacuum must be filled. Be forewarned: This is not Snuffy Smith or Li'l Abner. "The Sound of distant Thunder" is the winner of the 1999 Book of the Year award of the Appalachian Writers Association, an award won in the past by such writers as Sharyn McCrumb, Charles Frazier and, this year, by Robert Morgan.
