An outcast with no formal education, Angus MacKay's dream comes true when he sails to the Colonies to assist Mason and Dixon on their ground-breaking expedition.
However, the contentious Maryland-Pennsylvania border is in turmoil following eighty years of skirmishes pitting neighbors against each other. Tensions reach a boiling point after Angus stumbles over a dead body.
When an incompetent sheriff is determined to arrest Angus, the game changes from drawing a line on the ground to defining the line between good and evil. Will he catch the real culprit before it's too late? Or will it be his head in the noose?
From the treacherous crossing of the stormy Atlantic to the wild, untamed wilderness of Colonial Pennsylvania, Death on the Line is a rich, entertaining tale of a moment in American history and a young man's quest to make something of himself.

An Unabashed History Lover
I’ll admit it—I love history. I’m endlessly fascinated by the lives of people who walked this ground in earlier times. What did a typical day hold for them? What trials tested them? What decisions shaped their lives? As the 250th anniversary of American independence nears, I found myself wondering what brought people to the brink of revolution. But even more, I wondered what brought them here in the first place. What courage—or desperation—drove them to board a ship, knowing they might never return? Through my research, I came to admire those who made that perilous choice. And I also encountered those who did not come by choice at all—the people who were already here, whose stories are inseparable from this history.
