This is the continuation of the story of Michael Peter Loucks, A faithful Russian Orthodox teenager who has lived his entire life in the fictional town of West Monroe in Harding County, Ohio. This fictional town and county lie in Southern Ohio, about ninety minutes from Cincinnati and forty-five minutes from Columbus.

This story takes place in the A Well-Lived Life universe, and I believe you’ll get more enjoyment from the story if you read the stories in the order listed on this page on my Wiki:

A very special thanks to Steve Smith, also known as @LordPerfectSteve, my editor, who has done an incredibly stupendously awesome (his words!) fantastic job helping me bring these characters to life (and death, according to him).

Thanks also, to my proofreaders and the members of the AWLL email group and Discord server who get to read the pre-release chapters and point out the remaining typos and misses, and to you, my loyal readers, who point out typos and misses that still manage to slip by!
