Historical
Samuel Elwyn Biggs has fled the life-sucking poverty into
which he was born the hard hammering fist of his drunkard of
a father, and his religion-besotted mother. And now he must
learn to survive on his own. The gaming halls of Petersburg beckon him. He finds he has a
talent with games of chance. From a consumptive and dying old man who cares little for
the things he spent a lifetime accruing, Sam wins
undeveloped property in the piedmont of North Carolina. He
leaves Petersburg behind and enters a world of conflict. And there, he encounters a mysterious and beautiful young
woman named Rose. Sam and Rose wish to marry, but Rose
continually delays the wedding. There are secrets that Sam
must be told secrets that can ruin lives. Only Rose can tell Sam of her past. Wrongs must be righted
and there are people who must die for the evil they have
become.
