Description: "'Wherever the sheep sets his hoof, there is gold to be found.' What this Spanish proverb conveniently leaves off is: Where gold is found, trouble follows. Dan Shea came to New Mexico Territory looking to achieve the American dream. When he meets a wealthy rancher with a beautiful daughter, Dan thinks he has it made. But in the land of the lawless West, you only own what you can hold on to, and there are plenty of others looking to wrest away the ranch Dan has built his future on. It starts with a holdup. Then escalates to murder. And soon Dan is wondering whether he'll have any future left at all"--Publisher's web site.
