5.0 out of 5 stars I am now an avid reader of Sharyn McCrumb's books, 18 May 1999
By A Customer
I have recently discovered Sharyn McCrumb and don't know how I managed to overlook her novels all these years. In the past 3 weeks I have read 3 of her Appalachian novels. Most recently I read She Walks These Hills in 2 days. I could not put it down. Spencer Arrowood comes alive as the sheriff and I enjoy finding out more about the people of that area of the country. I am also intrigued by the remnants of English and Celtic customs in the people of the Appalachians. Ms. McCrumb writes very well, develops her characters in a way that you wish you could actually meet them and have them as your neighbors. Needless to say, I will be reading more and more of these wonderful novels. They are as colorful as country quilts.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sharon McCrumb - not just for mystery fans anymore, 22 May 1998
By A Customer
Once upon a time, Sharon McCrumb wrote nice little mystery stories. They were funny, well plotted, and lots of fun to read. But definitely for mystery readers. With the two earlier books of her ballad series, If Ever I Return Pretty Peggy-O and The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter, she began to gather depth and strength. Now, in She Walks These Hills McCrumb has become a true novelist, weaving history, folklore, humor, and the everyday concerns of real people past and present into an intricate and haunting story. Though it won't disappoint the mystery readers, She Walks These Hills is a book for readers of all genres.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another spooky Appalachian tale from a master storyteller, 31 Oct 1997
By A Customer
Appalachian magic and tragedy are again vividly portrayed for the lucky readers of this book. McCrumb's ability to convincingly weave the supernatural world with the everyday real world makes for a deliciously chilling story. (perfect for Halloween!) The sights, smells, textures, sounds and tastes of the mountains is so powerful that by the end of the book one fells "homesick" for them. I've never been to Appalachia, but because of McCrumb's writing I'm determined to go someday. The history, geography and culture of that region are fascinating, and this book reveals them all in the context of two wonderful narratives, ghostly and human.
