Summary: In 1756, young Edward faces a daunting challenge in colonial New York. With his father away, he must protect his mother and sister from potential French and Indian attacks. Armed only with a massive, unwieldy matchlock gun, Edward's courage and skill are put to the ultimate test. Can he rise to the occasion and safeguard his family, or will the threats prove too great? This gripping tale of bravery and responsibility unfolds with tension and heart.
