Laurel Valley is a community in the Carolina hills. Nobody knows why, but Montgomerys and Capshaws have been killing each other for over one hundred years. On a peaceful Sunday morning, Lee Montgomery drove his wife, mother-in-law, and four children to church. The youngest was four-year-old Olin Montgomery, the apple of the familys eye. When Lee reached the ford at Bloody Creek, the horses spooked and would not cross. Lee had the instincts of a wild animal. Something was amiss. Pistol in hand, he got out of the wagon to search the thick brush enveloping the trail. A dozen guns fired in unison, shredding the flesh of the Montgomery family. All was massacred, except Olin, whose little body was shielded by his grandmother. Fifteen years later, Olin has grown into manhood. It was his lifes mission to get revenge for his familys murder until he meets Etta, the daughter of the Capshaw clans patriarch. Their love is doomed by their families hatred. Bloody Creek is Romeo and Juliet set in the crossfire of a Hatfield/McCoy feud. This time, will the young lovers survive?
