About this ebook

Falling Water is the second installment in the riveting Hard Land adventure and survival series. Set along the rugged North American Pacific Coast in the early nineteenth century, John and Erin Daly live a hardscrabble life, scratching out a subsistence existence while fending off nature’s predators and the elements. Their love and faith and the local Native tribe are the bedrock of their survival until challenged by outlaws, a wicked Native witch, and a horrifying demon. The allure of gold weaves through twisting plots and schemes, drawing all participants in this exciting tale to a hidden valley where a final battle of good versus evil erupts.

Descriptive panoramas of endless forests, towering mountains, and tumbling waterfalls are the backdrop through all facets of the book. The deep beauty of coastal redwood forests and rugged coastlines provide stunning imagery. The story is colored with early American pioneering customs, skills, and ways of life. Native American symbolism, shamanism, and customs are explored.

This captivating tale is one of adventure, excitement, and the supernatural that builds upon itself from one gripping scene to the next only to reach a thrilling and surprising conclusion.
