Inexplicably drawn to the sound and the cigar box guitar he plays, it isn’t long before Drew, against all good sense, asks the enigmatic drifter to teach her his method. After a rough and tense introduction, he agrees and thus begins her daily lessons.But as they begin to build together her own cigar box guitar, and their familiarity grows, so does the mystery and danger that surrounds Doboro, drawing out of the shadows assassins bent on his destruction.And hers.Will the first song he teaches her also be her last? And will her involvement with the God-fearing Doboro introduce her to the Almighty before her time?KEVIN M. KRAFT weaves a tale of laughter, tears, action, and music as only he can.
