A brand new Western adventure from acclaimed author Johnny Gunn!

In the raw dawn of a young nation, Jacob and Melissa Wallace abandon the crowded streets of Boston for the untamed Ohio Valley. Armed with little more than courage, a wagon, and an unyielding dream of freedom, the young cabinetmaker and his sharp-shooting bride strike west into a wilderness ruled by bears, wolves, hostile outlaws, and proud Native tribes.

From mountain passes to river bottoms, they battle nature’s fury, build a cabin with their own hands, plant their first crops, and forge uneasy alliances with the land’s original inhabitants. As they carve out a life on the edge of the frontier, love, grit, and sacrifice become their only weapons against loneliness, betrayal, and the brutal price of expansion.

A powerful tribute to the fearless pioneers who wore buckskins and blazed the trail for a continent-spanning republic. Somewhere, there should be a statue of Jacob.

An epic tale of courage, love, and the birth of the American West.
