The Wretched and Undone
معلومات عن هذا الكتاب الإلكتروني
A searing Southern Gothic story unfolds in the Texas Hill Country, where history’s silenced voices rise in an astonishing and unsettling tale.
On the eve of the Civil War, Polish immigrants Marcin and Agnieszka Anderwald arrive in Bandera, Texas, seeking fertile soil, freedom, and a fresh start. Instead, their dreams curdle into nightmares when Marcin provokes a sinister specter bent on revenge. What follows is a relentless battle for the hearts, minds, and souls of the Anderwalds and their extended family of immigrant outcasts, Arab camel wranglers, wounded warriors, and a songstress teetering on the edge of madness.
As generations unfold, each must confront its darkest fears and reckon with the past’s enduring grip. Can faith, love, and sacrifice overcome unrelenting evil—or will the Anderwalds remain forever wretched and undone?
Inspired by real people and actual events, The Wretched and Undone is a sweeping, genre-bending saga set deep in the Texas Hill Country. Heralded as “a genre-bending thrill ride through Old Texas” with “characters so well-crafted they crawl off the page,” the novel was named a Killer Nashville Top Pick for 2024 and a Claymore Award Finalist for Best Southern Gothic.
