3 Chords and a Lie · Book two
The Broken
Compass
When desire takes the heart, fame devours the lost.
Published by Fouled Anchor Music
The dream has a cost.
The coal dust has settled, but Danny Wallace is still chasing a song he cannot quite name. The first book pulled him out of the mines for a taste of his dream. The Broken Compass asks what happens when the road, the bottle, and the memories become the opposite of stability.
Set against the same Appalachian ridgelines and small-town ghosts, the second book pushes Danny to decide what he is willing to lose to keep his music—and what he must finally face to keep his soul.

What it is really about
What remains when the crowd is gone.
The first book introduced the dream. This one explores the cost: home and history, faith and fallout, love and temptation, and the moments when the guitar case is shut and a person is left with the echo of their own choices.
