Great Lonesome: A Historical Western - Paperback

by John D. Nesbitt (Author)

A land of promise where every trail runs red.

Reese Hartley came to Wyoming to stake his claim and build a life of his own. But when his cattle boss demands control of his homestead rights, Reese stands his ground-and finds himself cut loose in a land where loyalty is as scarce as water.

Muriel has come west chasing the same dream. But her own kin have other plans-plans that threaten to leave her with nothing. When a cowboy is found dead on the range, and her young cousin Nancy turns up murdered, Reese follows a trail of hard truths into the heart of a deadly mystery.

As the law closes in and the killer runs for the high country, Reese joins the chase across bluffs and canyons-where justice is swift, and mercy is a rare thing.

"Nesbitt's latest valentine to the Wyoming frontier he clearly loves." -Kirkus Reviews
