    Innocence stolen in one heartless moment. No rest until they've delivered a reckoning... 
    Arizona Territory, 1867. Eleven-year-old Audie DeVine is thrilled to accompany his little brother Shane and missionary father deep into the Wild West. After making friends in an Apache camp, their world explodes when the Indian-hating US Cavalry arrives on the horizon. Audie can only hide and watch as the army brutally massacres the natives--and his father. 
    Nine-year-old Shane DeVine believed his dad may as well have been God's personal messenger. But with his faith shattered by rivers of blood, any thoughts of divine mercy are consumed by his cold fire of hatred. Remaining with Audie and what's left of their Apache allies, Shane swears to make those responsible pay for the devastating crime. 
    As the brothers mature and find an emotional outlet in music, they unexpectedly achieve fame and fortune in saloons across the frontier. But where Shane can drown his anger in whiskey and women, Audie seethes with an unquenchable lust for retribution. And a dual life as notorious musicians and secret vigilantes may be their undoing. 
    Will Audie and Shane exact justice before their internal demons drive them to Hell? 
    The DeVine Devils is a powerful story of Wild West grit and determination. If you like colorful characters, toughness born from tragedy, and moral dilemmas that still ring true today, then you'll love award-winning songwriter Jeremy Spillman's dusty tale of revenge.
