The Old Boy and The Land

A mythic red stag.

A broken old hunter.

A boy desperate to be saved.

Set in the deep winter woods of Tennessee, The Old Boy and the Land follows Tobias—an aging Vietnam veteran on one last hunt for the legendary red stag he’s chased for nine years.

But when he crosses paths with a wounded animal and a wounded boy, the pursuit becomes something far more dangerous and far more holy.

Part modern parable, part Southern fable, this spare, haunting novella explores failure, forgiveness, and the thin line between survival and grace.

It’s a simple story holding a heavy truth:

The hardest battles are fought inside a man’s own heart.
