And I Heard the Mourner Say

Ezekiel Cottrell is a kindhearted young man with a desire to live a quiet life in his small rural mountain community. However, any expectations he has for his life are soon uprooted when he finds himself wrongfully accused of the murder of Thomas Kean. As Ezekiel tells the story of his life from then on, he offers insights into his greatest triumphs and defeats, delving into forgotten joys and griefs, all the while showing how the events of his life shaped and reshaped him time and time again.
"This book is about pain and loss and finding hope and purpose therein. It is about the irreverent decimation of goodness and the journey to find it again. The story of The Woodsman is a story about life; it has love and hate; pain and redemption; and the ever-patient, beckoning hand of the Good Lord." - M. D. Eaton
