Publisher's Synopsis
Leonida Garcia has been beaten, robbed, widowed, and seen enough trouble in her young life to last ten lifetimes. Now she wants nothing more than to live peacable on her rancho. But when someone murders Ambrose Brice, she encourages retired ranger and friend Josiah Russell to find the killer. The trail he finds leads him to her best friend's door. While she worries about her friend Alice, and seeks to find a way of clearing her name, something even darker and more evil lurks in the shadows. If left alone, it will not only steal her land but take her very life. "Good story! All told, (Major has) spun a good yarn. This is a story that needs to be told to show the skullduggery concerning the old land grants in California, and Major did it well. - John Duncklee "A very good and entertaining tale of the old west from beginning to the end." - Dallas Review
