Opis

The West is a hard place to make a life, have a family and build a future. Indians have been moved to the reservations, the railroad has come to town, but life in Texas 1876 is still wild and woolly. On the Double H Ranch, Ruth Holbrook has come to visit her uncle, aunt and cousin. A neighboring rancher's sheep is stampeded over a cliff and on the east side of the ranch a wildfire nearly destroys the Diamond W. Are these natural occurrences or is someone trying to drive them out? Finding the truth won't be easy; who can you trust? Quin Smith, whose gun looks a little worn for a peaceable man, Sunny Bill, who will fight for what he believes in, or Ford Holbrook, the rancher who has built the Double H from the ground up? Or maybe Clair Ransome, the railroad man with eyes for Ruth? Alongside their men are the Holbrook women: Ruth, has she fallen in love with the West or a man? Ginny, the belle of the valley with her stylish clothes and cultured ways is looking for a man like her father. And, Anne Holbrook, standing by her man, regardless of what comes their way. These men and women know what they want and they won't settle for less. Death can come from fire, flood, stampede or gunshot. Will heaven bend down and rescue them before it's too late?
