Crimson Hill comes from the fine old literary tradition of Great Expectations. There’s the outrageous fortune bestowed upon the poorest family in town ... there’s the envy of friends ... there’s three generations overcome by poverty in the beginning and wealth in the end. This is the story of a long gone America, of love gained and lost, of treasures hidden and identities unknown. In the town of Crimson Hill luck is never what it seems and fate is always the dark, destructive force that tempts winners and losers alike. Don Clark France takes you to a town in the heart of the South, a town he knows well, where anything can, and does, happen. Step back in time with him and enter a world of warm meadows, meandering cows, and secret trysts down by the river. But don’t fall in love just yet ...for nothing is what it seems and everything is just one remove from what we believe is normal.
