From the Back Cover

American settlers face a series of brutal reprisals after outlaws murder a group of Shawnee Indians on the Virginia frontier in 1774. During the calamitous events that follow, British colonists, Shawnee warriors, a young slave girl, and an Irish indentured servant must find a way to survive a bloody war that threatens to destroy their entire way of life. Some discover an inner strength they did not think possible. Others sink to the deepest recesses of their humanity. In the end, no one is left unchanged.Based on actual events described in previously unpublished 18th century family records, Through the Fading Darkness captures the hope and tragedy of life on the frontier just before the American Revolution. Told through the eyes of John Dickinson, Chief Cornstalk, Lydia Townsend, Sylvie, Chief Logan, and dozens of traders, immigrants, and frontiersmen, Through the Fading Darkness is a true-to-life adventure story about the sacrifices people make to live free.
