Texas near the Louisiana State line; the end of the year of 1900. Bryan Merriweather was sick ... sick and tired of snobby businessmen and elderly, fawning widows. He now had nearly a half million dollars in "Horse Blankets." That would set him apart from any herd.His beautiful, blue eyed wife, Sarah, would disapprove. The gossip's tongues would waggle. She would be embarrassed, a social outcast from her church and her circle of friends. Their children, Samuel and Caroline, would suffer. "Sins of the father visited upon the children."They have to understand. Money has no conscience! His plan, though not perfect, was in place. To Hell with them!

But there was a lingering doubt.
