A near-obsessive pursuit of ghost stories and odd superstitions cranks up this serious study of Appalachian tales of the supernatural and their origin in both old-world customs and real historical events. An effort to preserve and record one aspect of a dying way of life, the book relies on interviews and historic documents to search for the facts behind local lore of murder, witchcraft, and weird hauntings. Several campfire-worthy ghost stories are recounted in their entirety—including "The Swinging Gate of Fern Lake Hollow"—and an unexpectedly large number of stories about aliens and UFOs provide an interesting comparison of three-century-old mysteries and those stirred up in comparatively recent times

Fifty years ago, no one could explain mountains. Arguments about their origin were spirited, to say the least. Progressive scientists were ridiculed for their ideas. Most geologists thought the Earth was shrinking. Contracting like a hot ball of iron, shrinking and exposing ridges that became mountains. Others were quite sure the planet was expanding. Growth widened sea basins and raised mountains. There was yet another idea, the theory that the world's crust was broken into big plates that jostled around, drifting until they collided and jarred mountains into existence. That idea was invariably dismissed as pseudo-science. Or "utter damned rot" as one prominent scientist said. But the doubtful theory of plate tectonics prevailed. Mountains, earthquakes, ancient ice ages, even veins of gold and fields of oil are now seen as the offspring of moving tectonic plates. Just half a century ago, most geologists sternly rejected the idea of drifting continents. But a few intrepid champions of plate tectonics dared to differ. The Mountain Mystery tells their story.

A woman finally convinces her wealthy husband that they should take a vacation. He is not an outdoorsman and works long hours, so she is surprised when he chooses a chalet in the Smoky Mountains outside of Gatlinburg, Tennessee. All is fine the first few days of their vacation, and then she receives a phone call telling her that someone is trying to kill her. Then her husband disappears. Notes are left on the chalet's doorstep. She receives text messages that are threatening. She is told where to go and when. It is obvious that more than one person is involved and they are not working together. She keeps seeing the same strangers over and over, but none of them threaten her in person. She has no one to turn to, and she is not sure who to trust and who not to trust. She is not even sure of those who work in law enforcement. She attempts to continue to try to enjoy her vacation, wondering if her husband will return, while all the time she is looking over her shoulder.

The grave held answers to questions that had long haunted her, and nothing would stop her from getting them...not even the return of Luke Crawford. Luke wasn’t about to be pushed out of McCall’s life again. Not when she needed him the most. The blue-eyed boy was now a devastating cowboy who knew what he wanted—and that was to keep McCall safe. Not an easy thing to do when her investigation stirred up a hornet’s nest of trouble. But nothing would stop him from taking this Winchester as his bride! HITCHED!

While she no longer trusted herself to tell the good guys from the bad, the handsome, blue-eyed cowboy made her feel safe. But it soon became apparent that the sparks that flew between them were anything but fake, and that the danger they faced was all too real….
