1912 - Elkmont, Tennessee. Nestled deep in the Great Smoky Mountains, Elkmont is a place where daisies bloom like stories passed down on the front porch. At The Appalachian Club, city folk and long-time mountain residents collide - and connect - across class, time, and tradition.

Through heartbreak, laughter, and the stubborn clinging to what must never be forgotten, join Levi Trentham, Lem Ownby, Mayna Avent, and so many others as they share the former logging town of Elkmont - now a popular vacation resort.

Times are good: fishing, swimming, picnics, hikes, dances on the porch. But soon, everyone - residents and visitors alike - is threatened when whispers of America's newest national park grow bolder. Louder.

In a time when the world changes faster than the daily Elkmont Special pulling into the train station, the mountains remain constant, offering their wisdom freely - but will ask for one thing in return.
