Customer Reviews

gut wrenching, passionate, western, great ending.

this is a book of the old west when women were expected to be prim and proper and the peasants were supposed to be poor. When that line is crossed, a feud begins between business parterns. The one's to suffer, however,are the horses. Great and a must read.

How can a book this good be out of print?? It's a shame!

This is an extremely well-crafted western, with some of the most memorable characters that I have ever encountered in the genre. Try to find it, even though it is currently out of print... it is well worth going to the extra trouble.
