Determined to teach her a lesson she would never forget, they orchestrated a brutal attack that changed the dynamics of the tiny coal mining village of Cedar Hollow, West Virginia forever.Voted Sapphic Readers Book Club Book of the Year in 2011 (under a different imprint), and a 2013 finalist for University of North Carolina-Wilmington’s Synergy Program, Appalachian Justice is a work of southern fiction that delves into social issues such as poverty, domestic violence, misogyny, and sexual orientation.
