The Road to Hindostan is the story of two Southern families who flee the gathering storm of civil war. With Virginia poised to fracture and Union forces threatening to retake Front Royal, they abandon their plantations-and the slaves who once made them powerful-seeking a new destiny beyond the reach of history. Their hope: to build a divine city on the forgotten frontier of Hindostan, Indiana.
But the land they claim is not empty. It is waiting.
Spun in blood and silver, The Road to Hindostan is a novel of exile and reckoning, set where the old South collapses and something older stirs. In the valley of Empyrean, the settlers find a silence too deep, a stillness that watches. The earth itself seems to keep a dark scripture.
As old science falters and visions surge, the new community fractures-some drawn to a silver-born ritual of survival, others seduced by a voice beyond the veil. A people are marked. Dreams go missing. A gateway opens.
Told through the eyes of the faithful, the skeptical, and the damned, The Road to Hindostan is a story of matriarchs who remember, sons who forget, and the dangerous beauty of listening to the dark.
