About This Book
A woman who inherits a mountain holding confronts grief, responsibility, and mounting threats as she strives to keep her valley's herds and people safe. Trained in her father's guncraft, she practices relentless marksmanship while forming alliances with loyal hands and neighbors. Riders, secret mountain ways, prized horses, and the harsh logic of frontier law drive a sequence of pursuits, confrontations, and strategic manoeuvres against an ambitious outsider seeking stock and influence. The tale weaves action — riding, gunfights, and canyon chases — with recurring themes of loyalty, duty, and the personal cost of defending a remote community.
