Bluegrass examines the startling possibility of faith and hope in a world defined by the impermanent and punctuated by pain and death. The story follows Cold Spring, a semiprofessional bluegrass band, from their obscure origins In Pigeon Forge, Pennsylvania, to the national stage. While the band tries for the golden ring of stardom, their home county is suffering from the growing pains caused by the opening of a new Interstate highway and the culture shock caused by a huge influx of people fleeing the city. From the moment real estate mogul Hugh McAdam's helicopter sets down in the parking lot of Chat Dalton's Garage, a struggle for control of the county ensues that eventually involves the Governor, scrapple, the Drug Enforcement Agency, ice tongs, the Immigration and Naturalization Service, cops, history books, drug dealers, auctioneers, bluegrass seed, construction workers, bibles, and assorted eccentric locals. Along the way, Dalton discovers that his past, like his beliefs about the future, are not all they appear to be. Spanning one festival season, the sights, sounds, heart and soul of bluegrass music and the rural bluegrass community that loves it are the backdrop for a story of lost innocence, rapacious development, endangered love, and the daunting task the locals of Pigeon Forge have in dealing with a paradise lost.

Coming off the disaster on the Monongahela, Jacob Murray and his young friend Joshua return to Fort Cumberland under the command of George Washington. The defeated British army soon withdraws further east, leaving the frontier virtually undefended. With the frontier left unprotected, Delaware raiding parties begin striking the settlers in an effort to clear their lands of the English. Jacob and Joshua lead a company of militia deep into the French-held Pennsylvania frontier. They plan to build a fort that will not only give the local settlers peace of mind and added protection, but serve as a 'home base' from which they can continue the search for Jacob's wife Maggie and Joshua's best friend One-Ear. Though the raids seem to lessen with the presence of the well-constructed fort, the Delaware have not withdrawn completely. A rescue mission soon turns out disastrous when the men are ambushed and Jacob is taken prisoner by chief Tewea, the dangerous warrior nicknamed Captain Jacobs. Help often comes from unexpected sources, and the Murrays soon find themselves face to face with ghosts from the past and a mysterious band of sentinels that are keeping watch over the Pennsylvania forests. www.thegauntletrunner1754.com
