Summary
A McCoy romance, McCoy makes a happy and rewarding visit home. He helps settle affairs concerning the family, enjoys a romantic interlude in an idyllic cabin, and is kidnapped by three local roughnecks. He beats them hands down in a brawl and to top it off, parks their air car in a most inconvenient spot.
Reactions and Reviews
Unknown Date
McCoy visits his brother Adrian's family on the old ranch for a nephew's wedding. His now-divorced old flame Venora pursues him, with eventual success. Meanwhile, Adrian is in dire financial straits due to an old rivalry with neighbor Tom Langtry, who is trying to persuade the council to put a dam on Adrian's property. Langtry plots to kidnap Adrian to keep him from testifying, but gets Leonard instead - much to their chagrin as he proceeds to wallop them both - and leave their air car parked over a lake. All ends well, with McCoy tentatively romancing Venora and the Council voting to put the reservoir elsewhere. A sweet and funny pastorale for the Doctor. And Laura manages to get some horses in there. There are hints in the story that it is a follow-up to a time-travel story in which McCoy sees one of the mansions in the Civil War era.[1]
1977
‘Autumn’s Echo’ is the next big story this time. It is about McCoy who is home on leave and busy getting reacquainted with a lovely lady from his past. It tells of McCoy’s attempts to rekindle his childhood friendship with her, as well as his becoming involved in a conflict between his brother Adrian and a neighboring farmer. Another well-written love story that holds your interest. A must for McCoy fans. [3]
This is a McCoy story, a romance of sorts, and a story about returning to his ancestral home in Georgia, and the few problems he finds there.[4]
A lovely McCoy story which takes place during his shore leave on earth. [5]
