The Ancient Burden of Misery - Paperback

by T. C. Walters (Author)

An explosion on the small family farm in Cle Elum, Washington sets off a series of horrific events which shatter the lives and cherished heritage of the Hastings Family. The backdrop of corporate farming and legislative corruption are pitted against a family's hard work and a passionate dedication to their land.

As Matt Hastings struggles to resist the biting demands of a corporate farmer, an unlikely braveheart by the name of Gage McClure takes the lead to help Matt shake off the powerful Dillon Russell agribusiness money machine ... despite the looming, violent attacks being made against Gage's beloved The Inn at the Pier, in Seattle. Threats to Gage's property come swift and fast from raging fires to threats of bombings.

What is behind the terrorism and how to stop these events from destroying the lives involved with Gage and The Inn, reveal themselves in this thrilling tale of corruption and greed ... hope and love... and a stark reminder of the desperation of those marginalized by history.
