The River Keeper

The River Keeper

Callie Mae McCauley knows a girlâ€™s got to be leathery, or sheâ€™ll be tore to pieces by the weight of all her troubles and trials . . . The tragedy Callie endures will forever change her simple, yet full life in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Orphaned at age eight, she must move to her Granny Janeâ€™s, where she soon realizes the shock of what sheâ€™s seen has stolen her voice. A new neighbor and Granny Janeâ€™s swarm of honeybees help Callie find her tongue. She soon discovers that, although Chloe Combs may be peculiar, Miss Chloe may be her only friend when her uncles come to claim their share of Granny Janeâ€™s land that straddles the New River. Her uncles have a plan, and they wonâ€™t let anything or anyone stand in their way, certainly not their niece Callie. When Callie ends up in an orphanage, she knows a mountain girl canâ€™t be held inside walls of plaster and wood. A mountain girlâ€™s got to feel the earth beneath her feet and listen as the river makes sweet music in her ears. But time is running out for Callie to save the New Riverâ€”her riverâ€”from her greedy unclesâ€™ plan.
