Winner of the 2004 SPUR AWARD for Best First Novel.

Fast-paced lyrically written account of one of the last campaigns against the Apache in Arizona Territory. Caught in the middle between the Army and the Apache are Jacob Cox, a rancher trying to bring peace and a new life to his hard patch of land, and his sister Martha.

"An outstanding western....The author's screenwriting experience stands him in good stead. He paints excellent word pictures and the story moves at a rapid pace....Worthy of many re-reads."
