Book excerpt: A man’s search for redemption leads him to deadly danger in the Texas panhandle in this classic Western by the seven-time Spur Award–winning author. As a professional troubleshooter, finding lost horses and straightening out crooked deals is all in a day’s work for Espy Norwood. It’s the troubles in his own life he can’t seem to shake. When Espy lands a job managing a ranch on the Texas panhandle, he hopes it will give him the fresh start he so desperately needs. But now he’s facing more trouble than ever: Bitter landowners plot against him, determined cattle thieves sneak right under his nose, and his own son refuses to trust or even know him. It will take all of Espy’s skill and grit—and a strong dose of determination—to catch the thieves, save the ranch, and win his son’s love.
