Overview

Ghosts of betrayal don't stay buried in Gumbo Flats, and Moses Watson has taken up his shovel of redemption. October 1865.-The Civil War is over. Slavery's death certificate has been written, but its supporting ideology hides among the dust and ruins. Moses, a freedman farmer in Kansas, is obsessed with returning to the South to rescue his wife and children, torn from him by slavery. Only that reunion can restore his harmony of mind and soul. Moses is joined by two loyal, conscience-bound allies, Perry Adams and Pete Fontaine, white men tied to Moses through allegiance and a common drive for recovery and truth. From the river bluffs of northeast Kansas to the haunted cotton fields of the Deep South, they ride into a land still bleeding and clinging to a lost cause. They chase clues through scorched towns and meet scarred souls along the way. Every path toward their destiny serves as a tinderbox of danger. Each mile brings them closer to long-buried secrets as they confront ghosts of the past. As the men are pulled deeper into their quest, each step forward unearths more than they bargained for. The path is shrouded in violence and darkness, but they are driven by an unshakable determination. At every turn, the trail twists, and the journey tests not just their collective will, but their bond. In the end, it's not just Moses's family hanging in the balance, but the souls of all three men. The Ghosts of Gumbo Flats is a taut, unflinching tale of gritty obsession, buried truths, and blood-deep bonds forged in the fires of loss and loyalty. The plot offers a must-read treatise on the human condition against a backdrop when doing nothing would have been the easiest trail. But they opt to ride, not just for family, but also to help restore the soul of a fractured nation.
