Civil War reenactors have gathered in the Appalachian Mountains to stage the lesser-known skirmishes of the conflict. Joining them is part-Cherokee mountain man Rattler. He is gifted with the ability to see spirits - and cursed with the knowledge that the players are conjuring up the restless souls of the actual soldiers who fought and died during the war.
Back in the 1860s, when the Civil War reached the North Carolina mountains, real-life Zebulon Vance, a self-made man and Confederate governor, fought for the interests of Appalachia within the hierarchy of the South. At the smae time, local residents Keith and Malinda Blalock became union guerrillas. With a ragtag army of conscription dodgers behind them, the Blalocks waged their own war - taking revenge against a regime responsible for ruining the homes and lives of mountain folk.
And in these ancient hill, old hatreds never die...........
