"It's empty," she said, staring into the open grave.
"It certainly is. We've been waiting for you, because it's your funeral."
"No!" she screamed, as he pointed the gun and pulled the trigger.
Leonida Garcia has been beaten, robbed, widowed and seen enough trouble in her young life to last ten lifetimes. Now she wants nothing more than to live peaceably on her rancho. But when someone murders Ambrose Brice, she encourages retired ranger and friend Josiah Russell to find the killer. The trail he finds leads him to her best friend's door. While she worries about her friend Alice, and seeks to find a way of clearing her name, something even darker and more evil lurks in the shadow. If left alone, it will not only steal her land but take her very life.

"A very good and entertaining tale of the old west from hbeginning to the end." - Dallas Review
