The people of Morninglight are a peaceful, God loving people. In a country torn by misery, war, and disease they remain true to their convictions and hide the secret that has kept them safe since the fall of the world. But knowledge of their little miracle has reached beyond the borders of their town. Terrorized by men determined to take whatever is needed to survive in this world, the defenseless survivors of Morninglight have no other choice but to run or give up all they have ever worked for. But some of those who remain are not willing to lose it all without a fight. Desperate to keep their world intact, they turn to a dark stranger and his disease-stricken companion. Two against an army. The beliefs of an old world versus the realities of a new hell. A bargain will be made, and a price will be paid.
