Robert is a warrior without a war. Unable to escape his past and incapable of political intrigue, he faces exile in the backwaters of colonial Africa. When innocents are threatened, are honor and duty reason enough to risk everything?

He once more takes up arms for King and Country until he can no longer abide the slaughter and the lies of political convenience.
He walks away from it all, but peace eludes the English lieutenant. Whether riding through the jungle with the Boer Commando, battling Muslim slavers in the desert, or working on a farm, Robert is bound to confront evil or cruelty. But how can a man fight injustice when the greatest war rages within himself?
The Wrath of a Righteous Man is the fifth volume of the By the Hands of Men series. Historical fiction by Roy M. Griffis, this epic sweeps across four continents in a gripping tale of fate, loss, redemption, and love.

Read the entire series
This series of books was breathtaking. Not only was it very educational, the characters grabbed you from the very beginning and continued throughout the series. I would be inclined to read everything this author writes.
