Bestselling author B.N. Rundell continues the thrilling western classic, following Elijah McCain on his life’s journey to fulfill an impossible promise… Amidst the growing chaos of the post-Civil War America, former Union Colonel Elijah McCain is on a mission to find his deserter stepsons. Going through more struggles than he thought possible—maybe more than when he was a general in the war—McCain finally locates his stepsons, only to have them flee the civilized East in favor of the adventurous West. When their reckless decisions begin to catch up with them and they’re kidnapped and thrown aboard a clipper ship, McCain is forced into action in order to save them. As fate would have it, he finds himself traveling down the Siskiyou Trail, a path littered with Mexican banditos, lost Danish settlers, and a disgruntled tribe of displaced Native Americans. Despite the obstacles thrown in the path of this ruthlessly determined and retired colonel, McCain gave his word, and he will allow nothing—man, nature, or evil incarnate—to keep him from fulfilling his promise. As McCain finds himself one step closer to fulfilling his covenant…he’s not sure what the cost will be. Prepare to be gripped by the non-stop action in this historical western novel, showcasing the grit and strength of one husband’s promise to his dying wife.

Born and raised in Colorado into a family of ranchers and cowboys, B.N. Rundell is the youngest of seven sons. Juggling bull riding, skiing, and high school, graduation was a launching pad for a hitch in the Army Paratroopers. After the army, he finished his college education in Springfield, MO, and together with his wife and growing family, entered the ministry as a Baptist preacher. Together, B.N. and Dawn raised four girls that are now married and have made them proud grandparents. With many years as a successful pastor and educator, he retired from the ministry and followed in the footsteps of his entrepreneurial father and started a successful insurance agency, which is now in the hands of his trusted nephew. He has also been a successful audiobook narrator and has recorded many books for several award-winning authors. Now finally realizing his life-long dream, B.N. has turned his efforts to writing a variety of books, from children’s picture books and young adult adventure books, to the historical fiction and western genres which are his first love.
