Description:
Recently orphaned Josh is hitchhiking from Massachusetts to his aunt's home in Texas when he is robbed and beaten and abandoned next to a remote roadside in the Appalachians. Rescued by Melungeons, descendants of early Portuguese settlers of the area, he is taken to Canara, their primitive village, with no telephones or cars or links to the twentieth century. But Josh soon realizes Canara is far more mysterious than just a place passed over by time -- it is a world from which he cannot escape.
