Description
It was the spring of 2012 in Worthington, a small town located in the mountains of southwest Virginia. People were restless and unsettled due to a struggling economy and the wounding of war. On Purple Mountain, it was believed by some that this was to be the last season for the city owned golf course, the Majestic. It was soon to be destroyed along with the peaks of Purple Mountain. Not if Anson and the Minutemen had anything to say about it. They know of its secrets, that the letters from the Greenskeeper are real. Many believed the Greenskeeper wrote them to grieving families of killed in action soldiers. Some believed he was well intentioned, honorable but many believed he was insane.
