Leo Leblanc had witnessed the foreign colonel’s trial. He had heard the heinous charges and felt the public’s rage. One week later, that very same colonel has turned up in his village.

Leo intends to bring him back to the city, but the early spring rain has flooded the river, making such a journey impossible. This war criminal will be in his hands ’til the river calms.

A novella set in the fictional world of an alternate 1835.
