After five long years in the army, First Lieutenant John Flynn was finally being mustered out and would soon be going home to the family he hadn’t even heard from since he enlisted. But when he rode to the family home, he made two shocking discoveries: his family was gone, and he had been declared dead by the army four years earlier. When he finally left to cross the plains of Nebraska to find his family, he would discover things that he wished he’d never known about and one person he knew he could never forget.
