Riders of the Purple Sage

a lonely, misunderstood gunfighter and a woman in need of protection. Lassiter is a man whose very name strikes fear into the hearts of men; reputed to be a vile, soulless killer, Lassiter is actually an honorable man who wields his big guns only in the name of personal justice. Lassiter's eighteen-year quest to find his sister, Milly Erne, finally ends at Milly's hidden gravesite on Jane Withersteen's ranch in Utah. Kidnapped by Mormons and brain-washed into becoming a Mormon wife, Milly was forced to leave her real husband behind. Frank Erne is the father of the child which she births while in captivity. When Lassiter meets Jane, he learns Milly had defied her captors, and for this they had stolen her little girl away. Milly died heartbroken in her friend Jane Withersteen's arms.
