THE WAITING KIND (CADE'S FORK SAGA)

By Andrew J. Harris

Some confessions take fifty years to finish.
Hospice nurse June Vance has sat with the dying of Cade's Fork County for eleven years, and she has learned to keep what they tell her. So when old Iva Odell - a woman with bare walls and a secret sent by certified mail - confesses to a murder that hasn't happened yet, June knows better than to look away.
What she uncovers is the last buried truth of a mountain county: a foreclosed family, a matriarch with a stolen name, and a machine built out of love and patience and set to go off on the far side of mercy. As a young newspaperwoman races the erasure into print and a thirty-year sheriff holds the thinnest thread of evidence, June is left carrying a name no one else can ever hear - all the way to three graves out past Panther Branch.
The haunting finale of the Cade's Fork Saga, The Waiting Kind is a literary crime novel about what a small place is willing to bury, and the one woman appointed to remember.
For readers of slow-burn Appalachian noir and Southern mysteries where the past never quite stays buried.The Cade's Fork Saga
