Publisher's Synopsis
A perilous escape. An uncertain outcome. A test of courage.
A French warship attacks the Mexico city, Mazatlán, and holds it hostage, thwarting Alberto De Leon's plans to return to his family in California. No one can get in or out. Trapped, he'll stop at nothing to win his freedom. But when he attempts a daring escape, it goes terribly wrong. He's now a man on the run with a bounty on his head.
Jane Bennett's nephews-Union officers-are captured and endure deplorable conditions in a Confederate prison. Finally, the Civil War ends and all prisoners of war are released. When the two brothers and hundreds of other soldiers board a ship to go home, they have no idea what fate has in store for them. Many will never see home again.
Dark clouds and uncertainty descend upon the Bennett clan as the chaos of two wars threatens the lives of those they hold dear. Will the family be strong enough to face what lies ahead?
