Produktbeschreibung
Suzanna hates everything about her New Mexico mountain home. The isolation. The short growing season. The critters after her corn. The long snow-bound winters in a dimly-lit cabin. But she loves Gerald, who loves this valley. So Suzanna does her unhappy best to adjust, even when the babies come, both of them in the middle of winter. Her postpartum depression, the cold, and the lack of sunlight push her to the edge. But the Sangre de Cristo mountains contain a menace far more dangerous than Suzanna's internal struggles. The man Gerald killed in the mountains of the Gila two years ago isn't as dead as everyone thought. And his lust for Suzanna may be even stronger than his desire for Gerald's blood.

Autorenporträt
The history of the American West is in Loretta Miles Tollefson's blood. Her grandfather Roscoe Miles was born in Oklahoma Territory and spent his childhood steadily following his parents moving west. They ended up in the mountains outside Port Angeles, Washington, just about as far as you could go before reaching the ocean. When he died, Loretta inherited a collection of first-hand accounts of the 19th century Pacific Northwest. When she moved to New Mexico as an adult, the books and her love of history went with her. That interest expanded to include every small town and land grant she encountered during a 20+ career as a public servant. Wherever she went in the State, she was exposed to its unique tri-cultural (Native, Hispanic, and Anglo) experience in the 1800's and the on-going impact of those events.When she retired, Loretta began to explore New Mexico's history more deeply, using the research skills she'd developed while obtaining two Master's of Arts (Communications and English Literature). The result is her Old New Mexico fiction-deeply researched, firmly set in the past, and brimming with historical characters.
