Another thoughtful and fervent short story that I enjoyed immensely.
Having read and LOVED the Wild Country Trilogy consisting of THE WILD COUNTRY, THE TRAIL TO SANTA ROSA, and WHISPER VALLEY, I was so excited to learn that Underwood has returned to the western genre with this marvelous new short story. It takes place before the events of the novels, giving us a glimpse of the hero Wyn Witcomb as he searches for his kidnapped sister and seeks justice for the murder of his parents. It isn’t necessary to have read the trilogy before reading this beautiful slice of western lore, but it will certainly add to your enjoyment if you have. Wonderful addition to the Wyn Witcomb saga!
