Prequel to the Camilla Crim Series
In the vast, destitute territory of Bear Gap, determined men hold the line against a new order of government. Guarding the front of that line is twenty-four year old, Knox Duffy.
Ravenous for blood, Knox challenges the new equally arrogant Supreme Ruler, Quinten Warwick. Bear Gap’s miles of untouched forests entice Quinten to use this village and its people to escalate his reputation and his coffers.
Quinten and Knox’s opposing beliefs kindle a devastating battle that leaves Knox nearly lame and his father dead. Surveying the battlefield later that night, Knox encounters a mysterious caped woman with a large turquoise necklace.
Stricken by her sorcery, Knox learns that she is not only a larger threat than the Warwick army but she has also left him with an erratic heartbeat he can’t explain.
Left with no father, a mother who’s gone mad, and a woman whose affections he can’t win, Knox finds himself caught in a web of bitterness. And now, he only has one thing on his mind: revenge.
Can Knox withstand just long enough to make restitution for his territory and the people he loves? Find out in The Faintly Beating Heart.
