Jim Powell’s Wally Avett and Murder
in Caney Fork!!
Jim Powell, a well-known artist in
North Georgia and currently an editorial cartoonist for several weekly
newspapers, did this marvelous caricature of Wally Avett holding a copy of his
new release, Murder in Caney Fork.
“He
did this bobble head — how, I don't know —and he is an old friend of mine. Jim
was raised in his grandfather's country store, where he listened to
never-ending discussions on country life, weather, farming, politics, etc.
He taught school at Blairsville, and was editor of the weekly paper at
Hiawassee when I got to know him. Great guy, we traded stories (and
sometimes pocket-knives) when he made his weekly trip to Murphy to get his
paper printed on our big web press.”
Jim Powell lives with his
writer-wife Roxanne (married 45 years) in the mountains near Young
Harris.
Murder at Caney
Fork
by Wally Avett
It’s the trial
of the century in a 1940’s North Carolina town.
Rape. Murder.
Vigilante justice.
War hero and law
student Wes Ross has to save his uncle—but hide the truth.
