The "Hobbit" meets "Virgin River"
One family hunted because of his past. One journey to survive. Will they find peace in redemption?
Rafen was once a warrior, but after years of crime, he traded his sword for a miner’s pick and built a quiet life on the frontier with his growing family. His days of peace are shattered when his estranged brother, charming yet dangerous, appears at his doorstep. He is fresh from the city, where their ruthless father was brutally slain by the King's Justice.
With this news, old secrets and new dangers come hunting for Rafen and his family. Thrust from his quiet life, Rafen and his family are plunged into a journey to escape the shadows of his family’s legacy and the one who would seek its end at the point of the blade. With two children and another on the way, it is a journey that could break and heal the family — if only they can survive.
When your own blood is stained and justice comes knocking, how far would you go to protect those you love?
