But Doc cannot help him once Mac fights with Constable Johnson. Mac must find a way to survive the prison at Port Arthur. Can Deidre and Mac build a new life for themselves in this rough and tumble penal colony?Years of Stone was a Quarter finalist in 2014's Amazon's Breakthrough Novel Award (ABNA) competition. ABNA reviewers commented Years of Stone "grips from the beginning," and is "not to be missed."
