Fanny, the youngest of the McCoy clan, gives voice to the events of the famous Hatfield-McCoy feud. Set in 1800's Appalachia, this is a tale of trouble between two families which escalates into violence when the oldest McCoy daughter, Ro, falls in love and runs off with a Hatfield boy.
Throughout the story, Fanny is haunted by "Old Yeller" and Ro's work on the morbid coffin quilt which seems to create a shadow of future loss. The dramatic retelling of the fates of these two families will keep you absorbed to the bitter end.
