In the Mountain’s Shadow is the story of a young girl, Laurel Montgomery, and the conflicts and challenges she faces during her eighteenth year, living on the mountain above the town of Loftonburg, Pennsylvania, the other side of the tracks in 1980. It is a year that begins quietly and grows steadily into one of danger and fear as a rapist stalks the town. One of her few friends becomes a victim. Will she be next? Along the way, the story weaves a web of intrigue as Laurel deals with a dysfunctional family, an alcoholic mother, an agoraphobic brother and his spirit twin, the loss of a family member and the shock of sexual abuse. She falls in love with a boy of a different race, obtains her first job, and finds solace in the spiritual atmosphere of the religious grotto at the foot of the mountain. The book builds page by page to a suspenseful climax where Laurel finally faces and comes to grip with her true destiny.
