What they went through, what it took to survive has created a bond between them. When one of the friends needs help, the others come a’running. They have a bond that is closer than brothers. This novella is the story of how they met in Andersonville. It’s not a comedy, it’s not a romance, but the fires that forged this friendship in the darkest days of the Civil War make the Trouble in Texas series bigger and better. I hope you enjoy the story.
