In the tradition of Pete Dexter's Deadwood, here is a richly imagined tale of frontier life. Tom Freshour, a strikingly handsome half-Indian, runs afoul of a scheme to steal thousands of acres from depression-ravaged farmers. Soon, Tom learns that the real villains in this rugged territory are not the outlaws with six-guns--but the heartless, greedy businessmen.
