About This Book

A Western set in a cattle valley centers on a powerful rancher whose control and suspected rustling provoke a hostile confrontation with a rival, culminating in a violent saloon encounter that leaves the rancher wounded. A violinist who performs in town intervenes and becomes his nurse, while the ranch foreman and local men confront intrigues around brands, land, and cattle theft. The narrative traces frontier power, loyalties, and the scramble over herds as characters pursue justice, protection of property, and personal survival.
