For us Ann Charles fans hungering for more of the Deadwood series, we've got some nice little teasers of where the story may go in this short story.  While Violet hunts for those delectable (Doc would say) purple boots, we get the back story on exactly why there is so much animosity between Violet and her half sister Susan.  There is also more description of what a louse the twins father is.  We get a little background on Quinn, Violet's brother, and a not so subtle preview of how Aunt Zoe may have some secrets to reveal soon.  I was anxious for the next in the series already after just having read the recently released fourth book.  Now I want to stalk Ann and have her working on book five 24/7. Just kidding, Ann.  I'll wait.Included in this short are a deleted scene from the first book Nearly Departed in Deadwood and a few of Ann's short stories as well as some photos and fun illustrations by C. S. Kunkle.
