Publisher Description: The Killing Ground begins in 1978 with the return of Hannah McKarkle to her hometown of Canona, West Virginia, where she sets out to remove the shroud of mystery that has surrounded her brother's murder for more than two decades. In her quest Hannah pieces together a collective history of Canona, peels away the facades that mask the town's best people, and becomes acquainted with the community's unpretentious citizenry. Her search for truth reveals a heritage that extends back to Johnny Church of Prisons, bringing the story of The Beulah Quintet full circle and yielding a tale told with moving conviction. |
