Title: Shadow's stand
Description: Shadow Ochoa is lying low in the western Kansas Territory, waiting for his fellow Texas Rangers -- the Hell's Eight brotherhood -- to clear his name. That is, until he's unjustly strung up for horse thieving ... and pretty Fei Yen intervenes. Invoking a seldom-used law, the exotic lady prospector claims Shadow as her husband and rides off with the bridegroom shackled to her buckboard. Savvy, fearless Fei is single-mindedly devoted to her hidden claim and all it promises : wealth, security and freedom. A husband is just a necessary inconvenience and a name on paper to hold the claim she cannot.
