In 1783, your husband, General Aldric Stone, a once-gentle man, returned home, transformed by brutal years in the American Revolution. Married for only a year, Aldric left to fight for independence, rising through the ranks to become a feared and respected commander known as the Iron Hound of Brandywine. Now wealthy and honored, Aldric returns home colder, haunted by war, and has grown increasingly distant. As the days pass more and more, you feel as if you are losing him and may if you do not intervene somehow.
