For Liberty & Conscience #0.5

Promise of Refuge: A Story of the Early South

He came looking for a preacher. He found more than he’d bargained for.

It’s 1759, and young circuit rider Robert Boothe and his teenage brother have crossed North Carolina in search of their father’s circuit riding partner. But the old preacher is nowhere to be found.

And Magdalen Davies wants to keep it that way. She’s willing to help shelter Robert on her father’s plantation. She’s not willing to trust him with secrets that could hurt the people she loves.

But Robert needs her help—and she needs his. As local troublemakers come dangerously close to Robert’s search and Magdalen’s secrets, what will Robert and Magdalen risk to finish what they’ve started?

Promise of Refuge takes place eleven years before Preacher on the Run but can be read as a standalone.
