More DescriptionHer land! They want her land! And Harper MacNeal, manager/owner of a small radio station in town, isn't about to let them have it. That small piece of land along the bluffs that overlooks the Ohio River was her mother's one gift to her. Now the town council in Clifford, Ohio, wants to build hotels on it. They've signed a contract with a riverboat gambling concern, generating dreams of wealth for Clifford and its people. All they need is the land. Over Harper's dead body! And "the witch" Asa Prine's, too, since her land is adjacent to the MacNeal property and takes in an even larger portion of the bluffs the town wants. Whit Dillon, the architect hired from Cincinnati to design the hotels, finds himself in the middle of the explosive conflict between the two women and the town. And Harper's beauty pulls him in a direction he doesn't want to go. Then the attacks begin - the violence. But not everything that happens has to do with the fight over the cliff property. Through it all, a long buried secret is coming to light, one that prompts someone to kill.
