Meadow of Stones: A story of a man's faith and love - promised and presented - Paperback

by Royce Ryder (Author)

In the North Georgia town of Tallulah Falls, the mountains keep their
own counsel. Steep ridges lean over Tallulah Gorge, where a thousand
feet of air hang between the rim and the river's roar. Beyond the ridge,
Panther Creek runs cold through hemlock shade and white pines,
tumbling over the ledges into deep pools where boys learn to work, to
pray, and to keep secrets the world may never understand.
Buddy Holcomb grows up in that rough grace - a pastor's son with
logger's hands and a quiet, steady heart. One shattering season in
Atlanta, a missing little girl, and a choice he cannot undo, cost him
more than a football career. The girl he loves is pulled back to the city's
glittering world, and Buddy is left in the hills with his aging parents, a
childhood friend who loves him in silence, and a private promise no
one else hears.
Soon, the trail leads to the Holcombs' farm above Panther Creek, where
beyond the ridgeline lies a hidden meadow holding dark deeds brought
to light - leaving the state to debate between the just and the unjust.
