Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord." - Romans 12:19Josiah Harmon built his Kansas cattle empire over twenty years and seven thousand acres of prime Flint Hills grass. He was the most powerful man in Covenant County - and on the morning of August fourteenth, 1888, he was found shot through the heart in his own study.By noon, a homesteader named Marcus Webb was in jail. Webb had motive. Webb had made a public threat. Sheriff Flood had his case.Reverend Elias Cane had his doubts.Riding into Covenant on circuit, Cane finds a town at war with itself - cattlemen and homesteaders squared off over barbed wire, water rights, and land that both sides claim as their own. He finds a widow whose grief is real but whose eyes are hiding something. He finds a foreman who knows more than he's saying. He finds a lay preacher sitting on a bequest worth forty thousand dollars that no one can quite explain. And he finds, buried beneath twenty years of Harmon prosperity, a foundation of stolen land, forged documents, and the broken lives of families who were never supposed to speak.The man in the jail cell didn't pull the trigger. But the man who did had reasons that go to the bone - reasons that make Cane's hardest question not who killed Josiah Harmon, but what justice actually requires when the answer is devastating for everyone it touches.The Blood of the Covenant is the fourth and most ambitious installment in The Circuit Rider Mysteries, a series of historical mysteries set in the 1880s American West. Longer, deeper, and more intricately plotted than its predecessors, it asks the question at the heart of every mystery worth reading: when the truth finally comes out, who pays - and who goes free?For readers who love historical mysteries with faith at their core, morally complex characters, and the wide, unforgiving landscape of the American frontier. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
