The book takes place in Arkansas, December 1906. Lizzy has finally found the one man who can help her escape the home that has been a prison since her father's death. But it isn't easy to leave when you have never been anywhere else. Sometimes, it is easier to stay with the evil that you know, than to face what might be worse. Lizzy doesn't know that this new man has plans of his own. She will go with him--one way or another.

CHAPTER 1br />
br />
The baby kicked hard enough to wake Lizzy from a sound sleep. She rolled to her side. Sometimes if she changed positions, it would quit moving. It was getting harder to rest comfortably, no matter what she tried.br />
She felt Gene’s presence then. He was by the fireplace stuffing his pack full of traveling gear. Lizzy released a deep, slow breath and prayed the sound would make him think she was still asleep.br / |
