2016 International Book AwardLiterary Classics Seal of Approval2016 Laramie Award Finalist(Classic western) What if you returned from a journey and your family had disappeared? What if someone took up residence in your home, assumed control of your affairs-and tried to kill you? Wade Forester must stay in the shadows or be shot. His father has vanished and his sister won't speak. Beautiful Patricia Laughlin runs things now. Few people gain her approval, though powerful landowner Bridger Calhoun has high hopes. Each in his/her corner-Wade must decide whether to risk his life for Patricia, Bridger must win Patricia's heart, and Patricia must choose which killer to trust with her life. Set in the historic Nevada silver rush, the writing comes from intimate knowledge of the territory; having lived off the land, Wilcox depended on his wit, grit, and strength (and on his animals), just as his characters do. Wilcox and Beckstrand weave authentic detail and care for the country and its creatures into an adventure that will make your heart pound and fill your lungs with the rarefied air of the old Sierra Nevada Mountains.
