In this gritty western prequel to 'If Only For a Season, ' you'll meet Jeremiah Clark as a young boy in the war-torn and politically divided South. Young Jeremiah Clark, the son of a Civil War hero who never lived to see his face, plows fields with his aging grandfather. They can only hope to clear two dollars a week in post-war Jackson County, Missouri. But even that isn't possible when U.S. Marshal, Daniel P. Upham heads Hiram Cantrell off to Leavenworth Prison on charges of murder. But one Federal soldier returns to help the boy with his rebel grandfather's trial. Turns out, the kindly old patriarch was a Quantrill Raider during the war, and plenty good at killing. The boy is drawn into a reckoning of his grandfather's dark past, and comes of age by way of his own trials and tribulations. If you like 'Swallow the Dog, ' you'll love the sequel: 'If Only For a Season, ' set in the rough and tumble Colorado gold mines, and then "Blue Marble" an historical romance in a 1910's marble quarry camp. Find them both on Amazon!
