Plucked from the degrading horror of brothel life in the New York slums, young Cathleen Donovan loses her Irish roots and becomes Margaret Hamilton, a wealthy widow's ward. With her engagement to a prominent Irish businessman, her future seems assured--until an appalling truth about her intended sends her fleeing, with desperate men on her trail. Stranded by a washed-out trestle in Heartbreak Creek, a dilapidated mining town in the Colorado Rockies, Margaret--now Lucinda Hathaway--impulsively decides to stay and get on with revitalizing the town and rebuilding her life. But the Pinkertons do good work, and once again she is the target of a depraved villain who wants her dead and Tait Rylander, who will stop at nothing to keep her alive. VERDICT A smart, resourceful heroine who survives at all costs, a strong, honorable hero who refuses to let her go, and a surfeit of diverse, unforgettable characters combine in a gripping, multilayered story that pulls few punches as it draws readers into the romance and often unvarnished reality of life in 19th-century America. Warner (Colorado Dawn) lives in Washington State.
