Crazy Jack
Gerald Costlow
Set in 1920s Appalachia, a man known only as Crazy Jack claims animal spirits can take over his mind and body. Elizabeth is one of the Sherritt witches, a young woman living in a shack far back on the ridge, struggling to make ends meet while raising her orphaned nephew. Crazy Jack asks her to marry him. She loves Jack, but wonders what sort of husband such an obviously crazy man would make.
Then Crazy Jack is accused of murder. The sheriff wants him in jail if the murdered man's kin doesn't track him down and lynch him first. Elizabeth is the only person around who believes him when he denies killing anyone.
Elizabeth must depend upon the powers of her clan and a special friend named Balaam to help prove Jack's innocence and keep the entire mountain from erupting into a blood feud.
