Loose Here: A Story of Secrets, Sin, and the Blood That Binds

By Elliott Oliver Williams

In the summer of 1953, a charismatic young preacher named Elias Beaumont Cole arrives in rural North Carolina for a revival, captivating the community with his magnetic presence and his signature cry: "LOOSE HERE "

Among those drawn to him are six of the eleven Favors sisters, each believing she alone holds a special connection with him. When Cole leaves, he leaves behind promises - and children whose true parentage will be hidden for nearly sixty years.

Decades later, the narrator - a grandchild who has lived his entire life under the wrong surname - receives a phone call that unravels everything. Armed with a recorder and a legal pad, he returns to the Carolina piedmont to piece together the truth before the last woman who knows the full story takes it to her grave.
