Jayna Baas’s works in progress:
Title TBD: For Liberty & Conscience #3
Preacher on the Run was the first book in the For Liberty & Conscience trilogy, followed by Promise of Refuge, a prequel short story. The second book, Patriot at the River, was released in September 2024. Work has just begun on the third and final book of the trilogy.
Setting:
West of the Blue Ridge Mountains, 1788. Seven years after Patriot at the River. The western edge of North Carolina has split off in an attempt to form an independent state, the State of Franklin, and the political situation is a royal mess.
Characters:
Mitchell Boothe, Robert’s circuit-riding brother from Preacher on the Run, stars alongside his impetuous nephew, Ayen. Keep an eye out for returning favorites from Preacher on the Run and Patriot at the River.
Plot:
Ayen Boothe has always wanted to be a circuit rider. When he decides he’s waited long enough and heads into the powder keg that is the State of Franklin, Mitchell strikes out after him. How hard can it be to track his nephew down and talk a little sense into him?
Title TBD, coming 2026: A short story featuring Rane Armistead from Patriot at the River and his escape from forced service in the British Royal Navy.
Title TBD, coming 2026: A short story fictionalizing General Francis Marion’s providential beginnings as the Swamp Fox.
