Appalachian Magic is about the life of Janet Rice, who was born into a humble, hard-working family in the heart of Appalachia. It was a time and place where communication was limited and all one had to depend on was family and neighbors.

Superstition ran rampant among the people, as well as hard-core religion. It was common practice to mix folklore, spells and religion together in the quiet solitude of the majestic hills.

There were stories and legends that were told in hushed tones about demons, ghosts, spells being cast and curses being removed. The local fortune tellers, tea leaf readers, and water glass gazers were always available.

Appalachian Magic begins in the forties and weaves a story about a young girl who grew up in the hills of Appalachia. She took the wisdom that she had learned from her ancestors and coupled it with her intuitive abilities to become a successful Appalachian Fortune Teller.
