Joy Chiming

By Malkhazi Rashoev

Ohio, 1681. Thirteen-year-old Joy watches his uncle murder his father and seize their chief's title - then buries Joy alive beside his father's body to make sure no heir survives. He claws his way out. And disappears into the forest.

For four years, he becomes something the tribe whispers about but never sees. A shadow. A ghost. The forest raises him where his people cast him out - until his uncle falls, and a new enemy arrives from across the sea: an army with rifles, dogs, and a banker's fortune riding on the timber of Joy's ancestral land.

Joy becomes the resistance no one can catch - until he falls for the one person he should never have looked at twice: the daughter of the man leading the invasion. What follows is a war for a homeland, a love that crosses two irreconcilable worlds, and a debt of blood that can never be fully paid.

A story of vengeance, survival, and the impossible cost of love in a war with no innocent side.
