Before North versus South, it was Akers versus Caudill in a deadly war between families in Clay County, Kentucky. Red Blood, White Ox takes place in 1849, just a few years before the Civil War. Despite her parents' warnings about marrying into the feud, Matilda Abner says yes to Billy Akers, their short marriage, full of hope, was littered with violence and injustice.

The story begins with Matilda lying on her death bed, riddled with guilt and haunted by the memories of her past. Before she leaves this world she must repent and confess to her husband, Ira, the tragic love story of her and her beloved, Billy. She must relive the violent attack that left her brutalized, the devotion of her then-husband who is determined to protect her, and the tragedy that ends their marriage. The story takes you to a time when life and the law were much simpler, yet easily tainted. The Akers clan held great power in the mountains of Clay County, but within that power was a curse. You will have a front-row seat from crime to court case to tragic conclusion, all nestled in a small eastern Kentucky town.

Inspired by actual events, join me on this journey to a time when the country was young and parts still wild.
