In the hour of crows / Dana Elmendorf. by Elmendorf, Dana. Mira, 2024. Call #: FICTION ELM Subjects Cousins -- Death -- Fiction.   Family secrets -- Fiction.   Magic -- Fiction.   Witches -- Fiction.   Georgia -- Fiction.   Appalachian Region -- Fiction. ISBN:  9780778310495 (hc.) Description:  280 p. ; 23 cm. Notes:  "A novel"--Cover. Summary:  "In a small town in rural Georgia, Appalachian roots and traditions still run deep. Folks paint their houses blue to keep the spirits way. Black ferns grow, it's said, where death will follow. And Weatherly Wilder's grandmother is a local Granny Witch, relied on for help delivering babies, making herbal remedies, tending to the sick -- and sometimes serving up a fatal dose of revenge when she deems it worthy. Hyper-religious, she rules Weatherly with an iron fist; because Weatherly has a rare and covetable gift: she's a Death Talker. Weatherly, when called upon, can talk the death out of the dying; only once, never twice. But in her short twenty years on this Earth this gift has taken a toll, rooting her to the small town that only wants her around when they need her and resents her backwater ways when they don't -- and how could she ever leave, if it meant someone could die while she was gone? Weatherly's best friend and cousin, Adaire, also has a gift: she's a Scryer; she can see the future reflected back in a dark surface, usually her scrying pan. Right before she's hit and in a bicycle accident, Adaire saw something unnerving in the pan, that much Weatherly knows, and she is certain this is why the mayor killed her cousin -- she doesn't believe for a moment that it was an accident. But when the mayor's son lays dying and Weatherly, for the first time, is unable to talk the death of him, the whole town suspects she was out for revenge, that she wouldn't save him. Weatherly, with the help of Adaire's spirit, sets out to prove her own innocence and find Adaire's killer, no matter what it takes."--Publisher.
