He came home to ashes and dug three graves.
On the Kentucke frontier, some men buy land with blood.
Spring, 1770. Jedediah Stroud is a young gunsmith raised on Scripture, with a long rifle of his own making. Vengeance belongs to the Lord. Every verse he knows says so. But the renegades who slaughtered his family are still out there, and the wilderness that swallowed them is the only home he has left.
He doesn't walk it alone. Zaccheus Longfellow, born to an enslaved mother and a Catawba chief, quick with a joke and deadly with a bow, steps out of the trees carrying griefs of his own. Two broken men become longhunters together.
Deep in the hunting grounds they find something worse than renegades: land speculators arming the killers, clearing hunters and settlers off the best ground one grave at a time. A wagon train of Baptist families is rolling straight into the trap, and the two Shawnee warrior women who cross Jed's trail are nothing like the enemies he expected.
The rifle in his hands promises revenge. His faith demands something harder. What kind of man will walk out of these woods?
Book One of The Long Hunter's Journals: a clean, faith-filled frontier adventure that puts you right there in the Kentucke wilderness of 1770.
