Set in the untamed Washington Territory of 1854, The Abandons is a sweeping Western drama that explores power, injustice, and survival on the edge of American expansion. Two vastly different families—one wealthy and influential, bound by blood and legacy, the other a fragile yet resilient found family of orphans and outcasts—find their destinies intertwined by two violent crimes, a buried secret, and a forbidden love. As rumors of silver beneath a contested piece of land ignite greed, a corrupt force driven by wealth and authority moves to claim what it wants, regardless of the human cost. In a land just beyond the reach of law, the struggle between the haves and the have-nots becomes a brutal test of loyalty, love, and the true meaning of Manifest Destiny.
