Publisher's Notes
There was a cattle crossing at Mustang Creek. It was miles from anywhere--plagued by deadly tornadoes, burning summers, and freezing winters, and on one had ever lived there, until Elizabeth Rettig came. Indians, trail hands and lawless men rode past on their way to fame or infamy--and because Elizabeth was young and spirited, suitors came too.
