Then he receives a visit from his brother's widow, asking for his help in finding his kidnapped niece, and Sherman is left with no choice but to pick up his guns once more and head out into the wilderness to rescue her before it's too late. But you cannot escape the past, and Sherman soon finds the ghosts of yesterday waiting for him on the bleak, unforgiving prairie...

“I'm giving this book a three stars because while the characters and general plot are enjoyable and fun too read, the flashbacks can be a little jarring and long winded. The ending is satisfying for the most part, until the very end when it stays a little longer than welcome. Overall good though”
