  A dark Southern Gothic saga unfolds in the Texas Hill Country, where history’s silenced voices rise—and a family’s fate hangs in the balance. 
  On the eve of the Civil War, Polish immigrants Marcin and Agnieszka Anderwald arrive in Bandera, Texas, seeking faith, fertile land, and freedom. But when Marcin provokes a vengeful specter, the Anderwalds and their unusual community—Arab camel wranglers, battle-scarred soldiers, and a songstress on the brink of madness—are drawn into a generational battle against relentless evil. 
  Hailed as “a genre-bending thrill ride through Old Texas,” The Wretched and Undone is brought vividly to life by Scott Fleming, an acclaimed narrator with over 100 audiobooks to his credit, including Reclaiming Mni Sota by Colin Mustful. 
  Dark, immersive, and unforgettable—this is a story of family, fear, and the forces that refuse to be silenced.

  There is something about the number 3.    
  The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two.   
  Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois.  It seems good things usually come in threes. 
  Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating.
