Synopsis

Louisiana, 1779. The world is at war, and sixteen-year-old Jacques LaRivière stands at a crossroads between boyhood and manhood. When Spain calls for volunteers to defend Louisiana against the British, Jacques leaves the quiet bayou he calls home, determined to honor a promise made to his grandfather—a promise to stand when his people are called and to never let their story fade into silence.

From the mist-covered waters of Fausse Pointe to the battlefields along the Mississippi, Jacques learns that courage isn’t found in grand speeches or shining uniforms, but in the hearts of ordinary men who keep their word when the world around them falls apart. Through hunger, fear, and the endless march of war, he discovers the strength that comes from faith, friendship, and the unbreakable bond of family.

Rooted in the true history of Acadian exiles who rebuilt their lives along the Louisiana frontier, The Acadian Soldier brings to life a forgotten chapter of America’s past. It’s a story of loyalty, loss, and endurance—a reminder that even in the darkest of times, honor can still light the way home.

For readers of All the Light We Cannot See and Cold Mountain, this moving tale blends the grit of history with the quiet power of faith. The Acadian Soldier is more than a war story—it’s a testament to promises kept, and the legacy of those who refused to disappear.
