This is the sequel to Lost Child Volume One - Anguish n the Nantahala. In Volume Two - Retribution in the Nantahala, the search for Abby Carter comes to a dramatic conclusion. But that is not the end, as the story, like the Nantahala River, flows on to wrap up the loose ends for the Carter family - many loose ends - which may shock or surprise the reader. These two novelettes become on complete novel on the final page. Some of these characters are already included in early plotting stages of Lost Child Volume Three, which takes place in a different region of the United States. Gene Skellig will bring these popular characters back to life in the future if his readership desires it. At this moment, Gene is involved in numerous other projects. For those not familiar with the Nantahala region of western North Carolina, the author recommends the use of internet resources to explore the real-world terrain where this fictional story is set.
