Smothermoss by Alisa Alering

Southern Appalachian gothic, meets coming of age novel, meets crime novel murder mystery, meets dark fantasy: Smothermoss is the genre transcending, beautifully atmospheric, and darkly magical story of two sisters, and their connection to their home in the mountainous Appalachian wilderness. But life changes when that home is endangered by unforeseen threats, including a murderer on the loose… Smothermoss is an absolute delight, exploring the bonds that hold us to each other, to ourselves, and to the land we live on.
