With Captain Daniel Morgan captured in Quebec, Lieutenant Ethan Chambers returns home burdened by guilt but determined to carry on his mentor’s cause. As the colonies push for freedom from the English crown, he raises a company of riflemen—farmers, tradesmen, and boys barely old enough to hold a musket—and leads them north to join General George Washington’s battered army, defending against a massive British assault on New York.

Ethan Chambers’ life is suddenly changed forever when his father suffers a horrific accident, only escaping death by the timely intervention of legendary frontiersman, Daniel Morgan. But the calamity has left Ethan’s father permanently crippled and unable to work, forcing the teenager to take his place as the family breadwinner, a role for which he feels entirely unprepared. And then, even as Ethan struggles to find work, leaders of the American colonies come to blows with an ever more violent and imperious British monarchy, at Lexington, Concord, and Bunker Hill.

“You dare call me traitor? It is you, sir, who is the traitor! You and all your slaver ‘friends’ speak nothing but treasonous sedition …” It’s spring 1861, and former army captain Nathan Chambers, is on unfamiliar ground; in the center of the swirling politics of the secession crisis, triggered by the election of an unknown Northerner, Abraham Lincoln. While Nathan fights to keep Virginia in the Union, his enemies plot to take the state by force. And when they do, they mean to trigger a war and murder their political rivals; especially one troublesome former army captain!

Nathan wants no part of slavery and intends to sell the farm and all its slaves. But even as he arrives home, enduring fearful and downcast stares from despondent black faces, he knows what he must do and the price he must pay for doing it.

It’s early 1860, and war hero Captain Nathaniel Chambers, commander U.S. Army Fort Davis in the west Texas wilderness, has received shocking news–his father is dead. He must return home to Virginia and claim his inheritance before a maniacal neighbor can murder his widowed mother and seize the family plantation. But he’s torn by a terrible dilemma–to stay in the army and turn his back on his fortune, his mother and his beloved childhood home, or become the thing he despises; a slave master! Is there no other choice?
