About This Book

East Texas wasn't much of a home for Cullen Baker. Few liked him, and some even tried to kill him. Yet after three hard years of wandering, he's come back to farm the land that is rightfully his. Only Cullen's in for an unwelcome homecoming: His neighbors have long memories, the Reconstructionist have greedy hearts, and his worst enemy has teamed up with a vicious outlaw. But Cullen isn't about to back down.
