      About This Book

      BLOOD BROTHERS

      The blood of the Courteney family turned to fire in the veins of twin brothers Sean and Garrick. It was only a matter of time before it exploded into a tempest of violence and death.

      After years in the jungle, Sean was ripped from his family and hard-earned riches to fight in the Boer War. In a cruel twist of fate, Sean fell under the command of his resentful brother. Through harrowing missions on the front lines and guerrilla combat in the veldt, each brother did what he had to survive ... and return to a homestead at war with itself, torn by greed, passion, and tragedy.

      One brother returned a hero, the other a coward. And the Courteney dynasty would have to protect its future against the sins of the fathers and the hatred of the brothers....
