The last time Gawain Harper saw Cumberland, Mississippi, he was
heading off to fight for the newly formed Confederate States of
America-driven not by the cause that motivated so many others,
but by love. The father of his beloved, Morgan Rhea, refused to
allow her to be courted by a man who would not take up arms to
defend the South. So Gawain joined the Mississippi Infantry-and
now, three nightmarish years later, he is coming home.
But postwar Cumberland is not the place Gawain so fondly
remembered. An occupying force of Union soldiers keeps uneasy
watch over the townspeople, including an erstwhile slave hunter
and an albino gravedigger known as Old Hundred-and-Eleven.
Meanwhile, a bloodthirsty former Confederate officer named King
Solomon Gault is organizing a secret militia to drive the
occupiers out and bring the entire region under his ruthless
control. Before Gawain can marry Morgan and build their new life
together, he must return to the world of violence and turmoil he
has been so desperate to escape.
