Into the Mountains

Into the Mountains is the story of two young people's struggle to survive while the Civil War rages around them. Boyd Houston is a Confederate soldier on parole after being captured by Union forces in West Virginia. When Lexus Saunders asks for his help, he returns from his home in South Carolina to find that she has been abducted by renegade soldiers and her house burned. When she is finally rescued and her broken body heals, Boyd escorts her through the mountains to Rowlesburg, where her relatives live. Sergeant Brown, the lone survivor of the renegades, follows them with plans to extract revenge.
