The Apostle

The Apostle was a man with a bloodied past whose violence trailed him. He had once been a good man, but raised mean and tough he became a wanted man, and after endless years of solitude behind steel bars he turned to god for salvation.
In the staunch Union town of North Cave, Tennessee he was both respected and feared in equal measures by the townsfolk, until god summoned him to do his work across the Cumberland in the land of the enemy. Unable to understand their preachers beckoning the unforgiving citizens bode him ill fortune rendered with a clear message of no return.

Void of all faith and rejecting his blessing, the rebels in the miserable war-torn town across the great divide did not give the northern preacher the welcome he had anticipated and he soon found that his life was in peril by ruthless and cold-blooded killers who wanted to send him to hell.
May the lord show mercy to his enemies, for if Reverend Dan Earl's anger is kindled he will show none.
