In 1868, very few settlers stopped in southern Kansas. The big cattle drives, so often associated with West, were only a year old. As yet there were no six shooters, no cowboy boots, no barbed wire. But mysticism and divination the were widely accepted.

Meet Ellen Hargrove who, recently widowed, has returned home to her family's trading post along the Chisholm Trail. Ellen has always been troubled by psychic occurrences; but now she is challenged by knowledge about murders in her own community. How can she convince Marshal Stamford that what she "sees" is true? Or maybe it isn't. Perhaps Reed Carter, the gambler who is courting her, is more involved in the area cattle rustlings than she thinks.

FURY IN SUMNER COUNTY gives authentic details of pioneering and cattle drives and the events are punctuated by turbulent Kansas weather. The true story, however, lies in its mystery, where Ellen not only aids in the criminal capture, but finally comes to terms with her own unique talents.

========================================

"...Ms. Cheatham writes authentically of pioneer life and hardship, of homes made of sod and canvas, of men who are laws unto themselves there at the farthest rim of civilization. She writes richly and honestly, offering her lucky readers a memorable adventure. I truly enjoyed this novel."
-- Richard S. Wheeler, winner of the Owen Wister Award for lifetime achievement in western literature.
