HIS RESTLESS HEART BEAT TO A RHYTHM OF ITS OWN- a rhythm that
had once been so prevalent in the core of his soul, but had long
been lost under the thick layers of routine, expectation, and
responsibility created by a quiet, civilized life. Konrad Quintero
de Leon, a young American man, having just returned home to New
York after his schooling at Oxford University, decides to venture
west to rediscover that lost rhythm and peel off the layers that
have muffled it for so long.
Set in the 1840s, some of America's most restless years, Konrad
begins an endless journey in search of his own "manifest destiny."
He embarks on a westward expedition with the famous explorer John
C. Fremont and legendary mountain man Kit Carson. He roams the wild
Texas frontier with the Texas Rangers and fights in the bloody
Battle of Monterrey under the command of General Zachary Taylor.
But the life of a restless wanderer is not an easy one, as Konrad
discovers when he falls in love with the beautiful and exciting
Anastasia Carriere-the fiancee of another man. He is cast into a
desperate battle where he must choose between the woman he loves
and the adventure that he craves.
