Book Description
Even in death, her spirit lived on.
THE GHOST OF SAREY JANE is a 20th century Romeo and Juliet tale with a touch of Macbeth and To Kill a Mockingbird.
Sarey Jane Munroe is an emotionally and physically abused teenager living on a farm in Appalachia. The time is 1916. Her only escape is her friendship with Billy Puckett. He opens her eyes to a world she never knew existed. There’s just one problem–their families have been feuding for five decades.
When Sarey’s father discovers their friendship, he vows to end it…at all costs. The young couple’s decision to run away sets in motion a string of consequences that resound for generations to come.
