Sword of Trust

In a darkly comedic exploration of obsession and deception, two women arrive in Alabama to sell an antique sword that they've inherited from their grandfather, who believed it was proof that the Confederacy won the Civil War. As they navigate a web of conspiracy theories and shady characters, including a pawn shop owner who's more interested in making a profit than in selling the artifact, the lines between reality and fantasy begin to blur. With its expertly drawn characters and strong sense of humanity, Sword of Trust is an enjoyable, if slightly meandering, journey that will keep you guessing until the very end.
