Sunrise Song

Two love stories, separated by years, intertwined by blood and history.

Spring 1973

Zane Lone Bull is tired of fighting for lost causes. From the front lines in Vietnam to the home front in defense of his Lakota people, Zane has seen his share of bloodshed. He’s determined to put his past behind him, to build his horse business, take care of his family, and steer clear of trouble. But the murder of his brother forces Zane to take up what might be one more lost cause. Uncovering the facts about his brother’s death leads Zane to one discovery after another, including a beautiful woman seeking a truth of her own.

Michelle Benedict has inherited property across the road from a cemetery where patients from a nearly forgotten insane asylum are buried. Her fate, the truth about the man who’d married her favorite aunt, and her future are tied to Zane Lone Bull, his brother, and a decades-old mystery about a young boy.

Secrets long buried will shatter everything Zane knows about his past as he and Michelle piece together the dark history of the facility and the people who were committed there—many for reasons other than insanity. Unless Michelle can convince Zane that love is worth every risk, the past may destroy him.
