A romance in the mountains--Lucinda Harmon struggles to break away from the sheltering bonds of family and from the mountain traditions to which McDowell County still held on to during the 1950s. Her goal was a bigger and broader world through the realm of education. In striving for her goal, she encounters resistance from family, religious strictures, and traditional roles for women. She also struggles with the love of two men, one who challenges her to risk the unknown, and another who overwhelms her with possessive love.

At the age of sixteen Lucinda Harmon met Dr. Jason McCall and knew that she would love him as long as she lived. She allowed others to push her into a path she didn't want; marriage to Jeff Marshall. She had a son but lived in misery for 20 years. In the meantime Dr. McCall had also married and had a daughter, but he too, never forgot Lucinda Harmon, now Lucinda Marshall. When sickness caused the death of Jason's wife and an accident caused the death of Lucinda's husband they still waited three years before they met again. Lucinda still had the feeling that this doctor was so much above her station in life that the barrier was to great to surpass. Dr. McCall had a different purpose in mind when he returned. He intended to marry the woman he had dreamed about ever since the first time he met her. This book tells the story of an undying love and a growth together in the faith and belief that even death will only part them for a short time and then they will step through the door of time and meet the Savior who had guided them and given them the oppertunity of living a life of peace, joy, and love.

He rarely finds cases to be cut and dry, so he delves deeper into Bill and Hannah's pasts. Somehow, it would appear Bill's death has to do with a business corporation, but the sergeant is having trouble making any evidence stick. Meanwhile, Hannah is haunted by her own demons. "Adda Leah Davis, author of the Lucinda Harmon series, has taken her pen and her readers in a decidedly different direction with A Fatal Web of Deceit. She has crafted a real page-turner, keeping the reader on the edge of their seat. Beckley, West Virginia, a quiet city by most standards, is the setting for Davis's well-written story of mystery, murder, and deception.
