1920. Thatcher Hutton, a war-weary soldier, is on the way back to his cowboy life. On the day he arrives in Foley, Texas, a local woman goes missing. Thatcher, the only stranger in town, is suspected of her abduction and worse. Standing between him and exoneration are a corrupt mayor, a crooked sheriff, a notorious cathouse madam, a sly bootlegger, feuding moonshiners, and a young widow whose soft features conceal an iron will. Laurel Plummer is destitute, but determined to dictate her own future. She plunges into the lucrative regional industry, much to the dislike of the good ol' boys who have ruled supreme, and her success quickly makes her a target for cutthroat competitors. Laurel and Thatcher find themselves on opposite sides of a moonshine war, where blood flows as freely as whiskey. -- adapted from jacket - Grand Central Pub
With a âknack for romantic tension and page-turning suspense, this one is a winner.â The year 1920 comes in with a roar in this rousing and suspenseful New York Times bestselling novel by Sandra Brown. Prohibition is the new law of the land, but murder, mayhem, lust, and greed are already institutions in the Moonshine Capitol of Texas (Booklist, starred review).
