About this book
An invitation to spend the summer with her father sets Molly McDonald on a difficult route across the Plains. Major Daniel McDonald commands a small, isolated military post near the Cimarron trail in 1868. When fighting spreads through the region, the visit he planned with confidence becomes an urgent problem: his daughter is already travelling, and his duties leave him struggling to arrange her protection.
Randall Parrish combines frontier adventure with a story of growing trust and private anxieties. In a later scene, Molly slips away from a dance to seek help from Hamlin, a soldier whose company has given her confidence. Their quiet conversation on a porch brings personal troubles into the larger world of forts, stagecoaches and uncertain roads. Readers interested in historical fiction can follow the contrast between a father’s official responsibilities and the fears and loyalties surrounding his daughter.
