The Blood of the Covenant

"Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord." — Romans 12:19

Josiah Harmon built his Kansas cattle empire over twenty years and seven thousand acres of prime Flint Hills grass. He was the most powerful man in Covenant County — and on the morning of August fourteenth, 1888, he was found shot through the heart in his own study.

Reverend Elias Cane had his doubts.
