Beneath The Panhandle Sky

Lucas Adammson’s life in the Oklahoma Panhandle is a daily test of survival and quiet longing for peace. In 1896, a year after losing his wife in childbirth, he shoulders four children and a struggling farm, barely finding the strength to face each new dawn. His mother, Maggie, does what she can to help, but a fragile new order is already fraying when Samantha—a fiery redhead from a neighboring farm—comes into their lives.

After filing for divorce, Samantha’s domineering husband tracks her down, and she seeks refuge with the Adammson’s. At the same time, Lucas treads a separate, unsettling path—one that reveals the man who raised him was not his biological father. A voyage back to Pennsylvania in 1897 to seek his true parentage leads Lucas to the moment of The Lattimer Massacre, drawing him into a larger reckoning with power and justice.

Compelled to act, Lucas begins writing anonymous articles that draw stark parallels between the plights of coal miners and farmers crushed beneath corporate greed. As his words ignite national attention and spark a rising cry for change, those he has dared to expose grow ever more determined to find him. Now Lucas must fight not only for his family but for the future of a nation on the brink.
