T. Edwin Carlsen

In 1843 young Joseph Tweddle lands in The Americas from England to start a new business with his father. Seven years into his new and perfect life, he's caught up in a set of ironic and compelling circumstances that force him to run and leave behind everything he's built. On the run and with the help of a wayward hunter, the unlikely pair travel the southern rivers to Kentucky. There, he marries, has six children, befriends a town and vanquished marauders all while the Pinkerton's never give up tracking him. Twenty-five years later he's finally captured and extradited back to New where he is to be hanged.
