Emilee longs for bygone days, when her family lived in peace in the quiet Georgia countryside. Everything changed since her father and uncles marched off to Virginia to serve with General Lee. Grownups made the conflict sound jubilant and short-lived. It was neither. What came as shock to the family left behind was that their worst enemy wore the same gray uniform.
When the Burns joins the pioneers heading west, it’s not the virgin prairies of Texas, but the ruthless treachery shown their family, and a search for justice that ultimately tests Emilee’s faith and resolve.
William Burns…his health broken, refuses to leave his brothers until they can all go home together. Like so many, is he doomed to die of disease before a bullet takes his life?
Emilee Burns… redefines society’s definition of the proper young lady. When she can no longer watch her father’s murderer go unpunished, she listens to her inner voice. A woman in a man’s world, she is not to be denied.
Retribution, paints a picture of the struggles of life in the battle worn south and the unsettled west, flavored with the regional history of both North Georgia and North Texas. It’s through her friendship with the city marshal and several Sherman ladies that Emilee finds the direction she must take.
Emilee’s life is a fast moving story of a woman coming into her own. She thrives in the male dominated world, but her thoughts never leave what’s important in her life: her God and her family.
