(Book)

Rising to a life of influence and wealth after a hard-luck youth in late nineteenth-century Arizona Territory, Cash McLendon flees in the wake of a tragedy and tries to win back the heart of a woman from his past only to be targeted by his former father-in-law.

Now, as son-in-law and heir apparent to industrial mogul Rupert Douglass, his life lacks passion, but seems securely set. When tragedy strikes, and his future dissolves in an instant.
