description: There were no secrets among the folk that lived in the Pine Mountain region of Kentucky. Everyone knew that Alex Turner was an old man with "strange" powers. They also knew that his daughter Judy could shoot like a man and had the same powers. But no one knew about the Black Heart Book ... Rosezelle Boggs-Qualls reveals with stunning insight the struggles of her great-grandfather and of her grandmother, a fiercely independent woman, who overcame the adversities of abandonment and divorce to carve a path to success for herself and her two young daughters. The events described in the book are true. They have been confirmed by members of the family and by recorded history of Harlan County, Kentucky.
