When she finds a half-drowned white woman in the mine slough, Bennie takes her in because it's right--but she also hopes this odd, magnetic stranger can lead her to the proof she needs. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eInstead, the woman called Motheater only brings more questions. She was once a witch of Appalachia, bound to tor and holler, possum and snake, with power in her hands and Scripture on her tongue. But the mystery of her fate, her doomed quest to keep industry off Kire, and the promises she bent and broke have followed her over 100 years into the future. And now, the choices Motheater and Bennie make together could change the face of Kire itself . . .\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLinda H.
