  Meet John Bannack. Jailed for a crime he didn't commit. Busted out of a Texas State Prison. Running for freedom and gunning for justice. They call him . . . THE MAN FROM WACO. 
   
   
   
  As a young man, John Bannack worked hard on his brother's farm—until times got tough and his brother grew desperate. Desperate enough to rob a bank. Unfortunately, John's brother left a trail that led straight to the Bannack farm. When a posse showed up to make an arrest, John made a fateful decision: He confessed to his brother's crime. Sacrificed his freedom for the sake of his brother's family. And doomed himself to a hard, hellish life in a rat-hole state prison . . . A man's got two choices in a place like that: get tough or get killed. For John Bannack it means this will be a one-way trip to Hell. 
   
   
   
  Bannack is on a work detail outside the prison. On the way back, Judge Wick Justice, who sentenced Bannack, tags along with the prison wagon, only to find he has involved himself in a planned prison break. When a gang ambushes the wagon and frees the prisoners, they bullet-blast the guards—and the judge takes a hunk of lead himself. But Bannack finds the judge alive and takes him to safety. In return, the judge releases him from prison and employs him as his bodyguard and avenger.

  Act of Oblivion is a sweeping historical thriller set in the turbulent aftermath of the English Civil War. It follows the gripping manhunt for Edward Whalley and William Goffe, two of the most wanted men in the British Empire—regicides who signed the death warrant of King Charles I and vanished into the New World to escape retribution. 
  Their pursuer is Richard Nayler, a tireless agent of the Crown obsessed with justice—or perhaps vengeance. As Whalley and Goffe live as fugitives across the raw, unforgiving landscape of 17th-century America, Nayler’s pursuit becomes a shadow war of secrecy, loyalty, and relentless determination. 
  This is not just a chase through history—it’s a profound exploration of conviction, sacrifice, and the long reach of power. Told with masterful pacing and emotional depth, Act of Oblivion invites listeners to confront the question: when you’ve risked everything for your beliefs, what happens when the world moves on without you? 
  Perfect for fans of historical fiction, political intrigue, and stories of unshakable purpose.
