About this item

It's late 1860 and out at Soldier's Farewell, a relay station in the middle of nowhere, the Munros are far removed from everything - including the smoldering conflict between the Northern and Southern states. There's nothing to worry about, Smith Munro keeps hearing from his father. But Smith can see the way tempers between passengers flare, the way more soldiers are coming through. One of these soldiers is his own brother, Julien. What Smith can't see is that Julien is part of a plan in which bloodshed is inevitable, a plan that will bring that Civil War to New Mexico, threatening to tear the Munro family and Soldier's Farewell apart.
