"Owen Danforth, a wounded Confederate soldier, comes home to Texas to recover, intending to return to his regiment. His family is torn apart by the war - two brothers dead, one uncle, a Union sympathizer, shot in the back by the home guard. His father - also a Unionist - hides out in the thicket with his remaining family because the home guard, led by "Captain" Phineas Shattuck, has sworn revenge on the Danforth clan.
Torn between duty and family loyalty, Owen Danforth faces difficult decisions until a violent encounter leaves him only one choice."--BOOK JACKET.
