Summary, etc.:

"From an act of political violence that tears apart a family's faith and community, S. M. Hulse crafts a compelling novel that mines the deep rifts that come when the reach of the government clashes with individual freedom"-- Provided by publisher.

For generations the Fabers have lived near Eden Mine, but Jo and Samuel will be the last: their family home has been seized by the state through eminent domain. Samuel said he was going to find work, but he is last seen by a security camera near the district courthouse at Elk Fork-- just before the bombing. And a nine-year-old girl, the daughter of a pastor of a storefront church, is in critical condition. After violence took their mother and Jo lost her ability to walk, Samuel fell in with a separatist group. Jo thought he had finished with all that-- and now she must choose between loyalty and justice. -- adapted from jacket
