The MacLeod Family Chronicles - Book 2
An abducted child. A fanatical priest. A promise that could cost one man his life.
William MacLeod has crossed hostile territory before. But his latest journey may demand more than he can give.
With a dying child strapped to his back, MacLeod crosses an arid desert and enters Alta California, a land under Mexican control where his presence is unwelcome. He should turn back. Instead, a promise made to a dying woman compels him to undertake a dangerous search for a missing child named Diego.
A zealous priest believes the boy's soul must be saved, whatever the cost. A woman from the streets of Vera Cruz becomes entangled in MacLeod's mission, while a lethal Frenchman stands ready to stop him. With powerful interests working against him, MacLeod must navigate a world where religious fanaticism, personal ambition, and questions of honor can turn deadly.
Every mile brings new dangers. Every encounter threatens to derail his mission. And as the forces opposing him close in, MacLeod must decide how much he is willing to sacrifice to keep his vow.
Can he find Diego before those who control the territory drive him out? Or will a confrontation with a man whose honor he has challenged end his search forever?
The Search for Diego, the second novel in The MacLeod Family Chronicles, is a compelling historical Western adventure blending frontier danger, mystery, moral conflict, and the enduring power of a promise.
Continue William MacLeod's journey into a world where justice is uncertain, enemies are relentless, and keeping your word may be the most dangerous choice of all.
