It’s a new century. Ralph Thacker is beginning his adult life in LeRoy Michigan with five dollars in his pocket, an axe, and the stigma of being a son of 'the sheriff who murdered his wife'. Travel back to the heart of Michigan farming country at the beginning of a new century and meet the good (and sometimes not so good) people of Leroy. Follow Hattie and Ralph’s fight to build and hold onto Maple Grove Farm and bring their family safely through the scandals, plagues, and perils, large and small, that beset a rural family.This book is the sequel to the novel ''Faithful Unto Death'', published by U. of Michigan. 3
