4.0(288)

As armies mobilise after secession, Denton Rocklin and Deborah Steele are drawn into a conflict that transforms courtship, kinship and duty. Family members choose opposing causes, and the first campaigns make clear that the war will reach far beyond the battlefield.

The novel connects the Rocklins to the First Battle of Bull Run and the Confederate capital while maintaining a Christian emphasis on divided allegiance and moral responsibility. The protagonists are fictional participants in documented events.
