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 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 to save them.

Bestselling author B.N. Rundell continues the thrilling and intriguing saga of Elijah McCain, on a quest to fulfill a near impossible promise...The great Northwest-land of the Nez Perce, Yakama, Nisqually and Muckleshoot peoples and a land that beckoned settlers and the remnants from the gold fields. But it had been ravaged by the Indian wars of 1855 and the years following. The Civil War was over, though not all was forgotten nor forgiven. Renegades were committed to making their mark against the Union. It was into this conflict that Elijah McCain's search for his missing sons brought him. That hunt would take him into the scablands, across the desolate plains, to join a freighter wagon train to cross the Cascade Mountain Range by way of the Naches Trail, the most treacherous and deadly route known at the time-made more so by an attack on a wagon train, leaving a massacre in the wake. The same renegades set their sights on a gold-carrying wagon train, but they had not reckoned on a man like former Union Colonel Elijah McCain, and that was to be their mistake, or perhaps Elijah's.

The exciting, explosive new series from the bestselling author of The Plainsman western series begins with The Covenant...It was a time of uncertainty in the infancy of the growing nation. The wild west was open and beckoning to displaced men and families, and many chose to travel to the unsettled frontier, dreaming of new homes, land, and even riches. But few reckoned on those that had lived in those lands for centuries, the native peoples, Blackfoot, Crow, Sioux, and more. Elijah McCain, fresh from the Union army where he had attained the rank of Lieutenant Colonel with the Mounted Rifles, the cavalry unit under General Sherman, had returned home to find his wife on her deathbed, but pleading for her twin sons. She elicited a promise, a covenant, from her husband, "Find my boys, bring them home." And Eli made that covenant. Holding her hand as she slipped from life, he promised he would bring her sons, his stepsons, home one way or the other. But would that promise be the undoing of dreams, lives, and more?Her final wish has become his life's mission...
