In the settlement of Dallastown, a stranger comes riding in, telling a story of escape from the New Church’s unstoppable Firemen. The Church is on the march, and the world might burn again-and the only hope might be a scared teenage girl, a gunslinger keeping his secrets, and a woman of few words and long knives. Welcome to the Orphan Age.
