About this listen

Successful New York editor Jen Gibbs is at the top of her game with her new position at Vida House Publishing - until a mysterious manuscript from an old slush pile appears on her desk. Turning the pages, Jen finds herself drawn into the life of Sarra, a mixed-race Melungeon girl trapped by dangerous men in turn-of-the-century Appalachia. A risky hunch may lead to The Story Keeper's hidden origins and its unknown author, but when the trail turns toward the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, a place Jen thought she'd left behind forever, the price of a blockbuster book deal may be higher than she's willing to pay.

I didn't want this book to end. All the different stories and timelines were interwoven like beautiful silk. I also enjoyed the historical side of the book. It is the first book I have read by Lisa Wingate and I have just bought another title. It will be the first of many of that I am sure.

I haven’t enjoyed listening to a book as much as this for ages!! I absolutely stayed awake at night because I couldn’t stop. I love the combination of ‘found’ manuscript & stories of the characters. I had no inkling of the history of this area of the U.S. but I am inspired to research it further as a result of listening.

Magnificent!!

Very interesting book, I got hooked after a few chapters and then never wanted to stop listening to it

The only downside I found were the accents a bit heavy at times but I expect they are fairly authentic of the area

Curiously interesting

A riveting tale with well researched detail providing a strong sense of place. The readers accents also accentuated this. I didn’t want it to end.

Get lost in the Appalachians!
