KODAK, TN, UNITED STATES, August 12, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Author Carl Parsons is proud to announce the release of his latest novel, Locust Hill: A Romantic Family Saga, published by Wordwooze Publishing.

Locust Hill follows the life of Cassandra, the wife and narrator, as she discovers a different world just outside her West Virginia hometown. In a quaint rural village where people depend on one another for survival, Cassandra learns that her husband, Jim Russell, is the embodiment of this spirit of mutual aid.

The story reflects the spirit of rural America and the values that continue to sustain small communities.”
