Preacher on the Run
A Novel of Early America Book 1 (For Liberty and Conscience)
He preaches truth. The Crown calls it treason.
It’s 1771, and tensions run high in colonial North Carolina. Frontier preacher Robert Boothe has spent the last four years standing against unlawful taxes and government corruption.
To his close-knit congregation, Robert is a courageous man of God who defends the truth. To his wife and young daughter, he’s a devoted protector who longs to shield them from the growing unrest. To the governor’s men, he’s a rebel who preaches a dangerous gospel of God-given freedom.
No one sees the doubts he wrestles in his own heart.
Then the governor’s ambitious new agent arrives to make an example of Robert’s resistance. Robert refuses to back down, even when he’s arrested in front of his church on a Sunday morning. But when his family and church are caught in the crossfire, what price will Robert pay to keep them safe?
