RALEIGH-DURHAM, N.C. - ncarol.com -- Author Stephanie A. Hicks announces the release of her newest historical novel, Keeper of the Hollow, a haunting and lyrical tale set deep in the 18th-century Appalachian foothills. Blending rich folkloric traditions, Christian mysticism, and the enduring power of family, this atmospheric novel offers readers a journey into a world where the land remembers—and so do its secrets.
Set in the shadowed woods of colonial North Carolina, Keeper of the Hollow follows Wren, a gifted young healer and midwife, as she grapples with inherited magic, long-buried grief, and a dark presence that stirs beneath the stones. When a mysterious stranger arrives—one tied to a lineage of witch hunters—Wren's faith, love, and strength are tested against forces both seen and unseen.
Rooted in the oral storytelling traditions of Appalachia, Keeper of the Hollow is a heart-wrenching and hope-filled exploration of generational trauma, spiritual resilience, and the sacred bond between a healer and the land she serves.
