Produktbeschreibung
Chance Hollister is hired to find a young girl who followed her husband to the gold fields of Colorado. Her mother has not heard from her daughter, Lucy, in three years and is not well; she wants the girl to come home before it is too late. Chance thinks the search is a lost cause but cannot turn the woman down. He follows the girl's trail from Missouri to Colorado and finally to the lead mining region of Kansas. He finds Lucy, now a widow who did not want her mother to know how she had been living in the years since she left home. Doctor Harley Mortimore left his sweetheart to study abroad, unaware that she was carrying his child. Years later, he returns, a bitter and resentful man who finally learns of the daughter he never knew he had. In his earlier occupation as a lawman, Chance brought in an outlaw who spent six years in prison and vowed to give the detective a bullet for each year he was behind bars; he's out now, and determined to follow through with his plan for revenge. All these people will converge in Deadhorse. 57,500 words

Autorenporträt
Amanda Brenner is a native Midwesterner who has traveled extensively throughout the United States and now lives quietly with her husband and an assortment of wildlife visitors to their urban home. Her interest in writing began at an early age when westerns were popular attractions at the local theater. It seemed only natural that her first novel, Trail of Vengeance, should be in that genre. After finishing a second western, Shadow of the Rope, she began to explore a new direction and completed three contemporary mysteries involving private investigator Sid Langdon, a self-doubting magnet for offbeat clients and hapless scenarios, the latest being The Mystery of the Nourdon Blue. Amanda enjoys learning from the books she reads, a characteristic reflected in the research she includes in her own works. Thank you for your time.
