The Bone Orchard of Echo Ridge: A Novel Of Appalachian Horror

By Edwin Rodriguez

The Bone Orchard of Echo Ridge follows disgraced investigative journalist Clara Vance as she returns to her hollowed-out hometown of Echo Ridge, Tennessee, to investigate the sudden disappearance of her brother, Wade. Her search leads her to an abandoned quarry and a hidden history: in 1938, local leaders flooded the original town of Pine Ridge to submerge an ancient, subterranean entity. Clara uncovers "The Covenant of the Fold," a secret pact forged by the town's founding families-including her own-requiring a human sacrifice every thirty years to keep the ancient force placated. Realizing her family named her as a sacrifice decades ago before her mother fled, Clara discovers Wade was targeted to settle that debt, forcing her to confront both the corrupt local conspirators and the supernatural entity before the deadline closes in.
