Opis

Alexis Willow was finished with life in the big city. So she and her husband Chet bought the estate of former turn-of-the-century millionaire industrialist Titus Blaylock: A mansion of stone built atop a terrace carved from the shoulders of Cheat Mountain overlooking the village of Monterey, Virginia and the lush Shenandoah Valley. For Lexi it was an opportunity to raise champion Thoroughbreds and start a family. But from the moment she and Chet set foot on that mountain remains of the Blaylock's sordid past began to envelop their lives-greed, infidelity, jealousy and murder. At the heart of it was Titus Blaylock's fortune in gold and silver, believed by most of Monterey to still be buried somewhere upon the grounds, a fortune many had spent their lives trying to find. Set against a backdrop of the historic Civil War battle of McDowell, the Confederate Breastworks and a rich mountain empire culture, Lexi has to wrestle demons from her own past and choose whether to fight for the life she has always dreamed of living or relent to outside forces once again. CHEAT MOUNTAIN by K.P. Hayden, author of DARKSAIL, a supernatural nautical thriller.
