Description
"1875. Kathryn Walsh arrives in tiny Calvada, a mining town nestled in the Sierra Nevadas. Banished from Boston by her wealthy stepfather, she has come to claim an inheritance from the uncle she never knew: a defunct newspaper office on a main street overflowing with brothels and saloons, and a seemingly worthless mine. Moved by the oppression of the local miners and their families, Kathryn decides to relaunch her uncle's newspaper--and finds herself pitted against Calvada's most powerful men. Matthias Beck, owner of a local saloon and hotel, has a special interest in the new lady in town. He instantly recognizes the tenacity in the outspoken redhead, and knows all too well how dangerous that family trait can be. While Kathryn may be right about Calvada's problems, her righteousness could also get her killed." -- Provided by publisher.
