PROLOGUE from the SON SERIES
Wire usually shines in the moonlight. This night there was barely a sliver of moon, so they rode with caution as they neared the fence. A shrill whistle from the left carried well in their direction. The three horsemen pulled up sharply, looked to the south, and saw a flickering beam from a flashlight. Their leader glanced around, assuring himself that the others had also heard it. Then all three spurred their mounts down the fence line in the direction of the light.
They’d found what they sought, the missing patriarch of the family, but not at all as they expected. The body was clearly that of the senator, and it draped limply from the top strands of barbed wire fencing. Its hands touched the ground, as did the legs below the knee, but nothing else. The face, now ashen, clearly reflected both shock and fear.
