Mud Puddles and Mockingbird Feathers and the Sky Is Crying George D King

Mud Puddles and Mockingbird Feathers Camelia Ledbetter has lived in Fort Walton Beach for over a hundred years across the Sound from Okaloosa Island that she fears more than anything else. Her heart and mind should be filled with rage, but her vigilant faith and determination shield her from the disaster that occurred seventy-five years ago, and the loneliness of her empty bed and a hatred of the war that tore her life apart. The La Mancha may never be the same after the three four-year-old 'soldiers' invade it. Their innocence will lead them to the ultimate danger for all three of them, for the psychotic killer is still on 'campus' as the Prof calls the place. Twists of fate, both in the war and on Okaloosa Island, create a maze that the boys and Miss Camelia struggle through. The Sky is Crying Miss Camelia Ledbetter's story ends with Mud Puddles and Mockingbird Feathers, but her Great Grandson, Zathan, has a dream where she tells him that Evil is on its way to Chanticleer Lane, the street where she lived for over a hundred years. Enter, Elmer Carter, his wife Balance, and their daughter, Bunny Jo. Elmer, a conniving schemer and vicious alcoholic, will get what he wants by any means-scams or bloody violence.
