About this book
Oliver Drew rides into Halfmoon Flat through wooded California hills, with the American River below and the snowy Sierras in the distance. His arrival brings him straight into a tense confrontation behind a saloon, where a dispute turns deadly. Jessamy, a young woman who rides into the scene, makes a strong impression on him. The quiet appearance of the old mining town soon gives way to personal danger.
This Western novel combines riding trails, local rivalries and growing affection with a landscape of ranches, chaparral and mountain streams. In a later scene, Oliver and Jessamy suspect that someone is watching them as they approach Sulphur Spring. Their conversation suggests a concerted effort to drive Oliver from the country, while Jessamy weighs which neighbours pose a threat.
