The Specters of Carlton County

Author, Marc Miller, investigates ghostly goings on in the Ozark Mountains of northwest Arkansas. In this first outing (it is a series) Marc investigates the Legend of the Coward's Patrol - six teenage Confederate soldiers recklessly dispatched by a maniacal minister on a suicide mission to ambush Yankees. Was it their ethereal souls he witnessed riding the Ozark hills by night and their mournful sobs he heard echoing thorugh the ancient inn? He confronts mystery, intrigue and danger on his way to ferreting out the facts. The members of the community are closed mouthed. The owners of the inn seem to have some secret they must hide. The patriarch of the area makes it known that Marc is not welcome and that his safety cannot be guaranteed. The young owner of the café appears to be friendly and helpful, but is she - really?
