Summary
Three Civil War deserters kidnap a young boy with the sole purpose of conscripting him into their degenerate band of misfits. Tethered about the neck with a rawhide lace and made to bid the commands of General Ike Smith, the boy's survival depends upon his ability to adapt to their malevolent ways - a lesson he learns quickly. His single opportunity for redemption may lie with an old Indian horse trainer and a small band of unbroke horses

Summary
"A young, sheltered son of a preacher finds his idylic life cast into turmoil as he struggles to survive the atrocities imposed upon him by three Civil War deserters who kidnap him, tether him about the neck with a rawhide lace, and then use him as a hostage to futher their unclear, but dark mission. Matthew embraces the violence he despises in his captors and begins the downward spiral that he believes has cost him his soul. His salvation comes down to an old Indian horse trainer and a small band of unbroke horses."--Amazon.com
