Lost River — Grace Hawthorne

Everybody in Lost River has a story of survival, even the dogs. There are big stories like the Bataan Death March, the Spanish Flu epidemic and POW camps in Georgia.And small stories like how Inky got his name, how Boot found a home, how the women hornswoggled the men in an election and how a little doohickey saved the town from financial ruin.Small towns and the people who live in them are tough, resilient, optimistic and sometimes downright funny.It's only when you learn their back stories that you can appreciate who they really are. Welcome to Lost River.
