Publisher's summary

A 2022 Western Writers of America Spur Award Finalist for Best Traditional Western Novel.

Out of nowhere Comanches attack, and sixteen year-old Jane narrowly survives the slaughter of her family and the kidnapping of her baby sister. Driven by grief and fury, she rides headlong into Indian territory, seeking vengeance.

But the odds are stacked against a young girl on the trail, and Jane soon realizes she must disguise herself as a boy to join forces with a tough company of cowhands on a cattle drive to Dodge City.

The harrowing trek pits her against tough drovers, raging rivers, ruthless soldiers, and ends in a bloody reckoning that forces Jane to discover her surprising capacity for love, survival—and revenge.

It was great, but sad!!! I

I appreciate how the story told different points of view. It is terrible how the different groups of people treated each other!

Interesting listen

This audio book kept my attention throughout. It was hard to put down. My only complaint was that it was a bit to long with unnecessary additions

Fantastic & Beyond my wildest expectations!!!

The story, the characters, the narration are all spot on. This is everything I wanted in an audio book. I’m so happy that I followed the other reviews.

Trigger warning about violence, but that’s to be expected with the subject matter. I did not think it was gratuitous though.

I’m a man who you’d never expect to get my emotions wrapped up in an audio book, but I found myself smiling, laughing out loud and getting teary eyed while listening.

I’m a week away from the release of the sequel on audio book and I can’t wait!

Wow…what a ride!

Growing up in the cattle business, i know when someone doesn’t know what they’re talking about when it comes to horses and cattle. This was so well written and was an interesting window into the past of the cattle industry I love. Loved the lingo, the nicknames, and the story of hope and grace even in the wildest, scariest of times. Even had to laugh out loud more than once! I don’t know how she was that brave but I hope there really were spirited women like the Kid back in the day. Highly recommend!!!!
