Owen is eventually drawn into the conflict between his father and the home guards. The home guards are looking for anyone who actively supports the Union cause. They arrest and detain people, illegally seize lands and murder whoever they don’t like. Owen is forced to choose between the Confederacy and the Union guerrillas his father is helping.
I enjoyed reading this because Elmer Kelton writes a nice simple western, easy reading.
