When the frontier became a battleground, ordinary people became heroes.
Elizabeth Hadley envisions her family enduring mild hardships as she and Daniel build a new life in Kansas Territory in 1855. Instead of easily solved challenges, she finds herself thrown into a violent struggle that will determine the future of the United States. The entry of Kansas as a state will determine if the United State will endorse slavery as a nation.
Leaving behind the comfort of their Indiana home, Elizabeth and Daniel navigate the dangers of living in a frontier community, sheltering fugitive slaves, enduring armed sieges, and protecting their growing family from pro-slavery vigilantes. She finds the strength to navigate the turbulent times through unwavering commitment to justice, the love of family, and faith in God.
The Hadley family stands firm in their beliefs through dangerous rescues, drought, and political turmoil. While the men provide protection and provisions, Elizabeth wisely manages a household frequented by extended family members, runaway slaves, and people needing temporary shelter.
This novel is based on actual events from the Bleeding Kansas era, the precursor to the Civil War. It is a story of ordinary people who risk everything to do what is right.
