Percy is a man on the run, branded a traitor for deserting his army unit. But it’s not his former comrades he’s fleeing from—it’s his own tormented past. Haunted by war’s grim memories, he’s seeking solace and a way back home. Soon, he finds a hanged sheriff and a letter to his daughter, and his journey leads him to a hidden town, shackled under the rule of an unseen, malevolent force.

Will he escape war only to be thrown into a new relentless battle for justice?

Molly Speers, the iron-willed daughter of the town’s sheriff, is no stranger to hardship. Skilled in riding and shooting, she’s thrust into a fierce battle when her father is tragically killed. The town is under the ruthless control of the Sons of the South, a group refusing to accept the Confederacy’s defeat. Their tyrannical rule masks a sinister battle that could spell doom for all. Yet her encounter with Percy brings hope to her fight and heart…

Can she trust the troubled soldier to help her?

Fate intertwines Percy and Molly’s paths, forcing them to fight for their lives and their town’s freedom. As they confront the shadows threatening their future and find allies to accompany their quest, they must also confront their inner demons. Will Percy unravel the mystery behind the Sons’ control, or will the town remain in darkness? When all hope seems lost, can Percy and Molly find redemption among murder, love, and forgiveness?
