Books by Thomas Yoke

Enslaved by his own father, a Georgia plantation owner, Sam More has known little but suffering all his life. He escapes only to embroil himself in the bloody, haunting battlefields of the Civil War, where he finds himself accused of a terrible crime. On the run and with nothing to live for save the oath he made to a dying man--the very man he's accused of killing--Sam finally finds shelter in the home of a widow and her shy son. There, however, he faces a choice. Can he betray the closest thing to family he's ever had? Or can he seize this final chance at acceptance, even if it means giving up the thing he desires most: revenge. Journey of the Unforgiven follows Sam through struggles both physical and spiritual as he searches for acceptance within a world that has never had a place for him. Wars must be fought. Grief must be endured. Before Sam can find peace, he must break free of the chains of his past and learn that true redemption can only come from within.
