Harrison and Ella fight to recapture the love and trust they've lost. But, before they are able to renew their mutual respect and love, the scabs of blame and anger must be rent open so the healing may begin. Can sweet baby Lily-doll be balm to their suffering? The Hayes sons-Lincoln, Parker, Revere-reach beyond their years standing up to face tough challenges from which bigger men have run. Are the little men ready to stand tall in a grown man's world? The bleak midwinter finds Glory Champion alone and with child, fighting for survival on her homestead twenty miles from Worthless.

He keeps her larder and wood box supplied but won't look her in the eye. What will happen when the world learns he loves the most debased woman in the county? Meanwhile, rumors rile the good citizens of County South. Kit Champion and Slim Watson are spotted in Capital City, living debauched lives having evaded punishment for their crimes. Will justice be served? Sweeping Scenery. Vivid Characters. Touchable Sentiment.Everything you've come to expect in Barbara Toomer's County South Saga.
