A young Confederate war soldier (Inman) goes AWOL and begins a long journey home to the mountains of North Carolina to his long lost love (Ada). Along the way he meets marauders, bandits, guards looking for outliers, an old witch, a family who tries to turn him in for the reward, a wayward preacher, a young woman whose husband was killed in the war, among many others. Meanwhile, back home Ada is trying to survive on her fathers farm hopelessly until a young half-Cherokee woman (Ruby)comes to her aid. A great read and I can't wait to see the movie.
