Description

John Hare, a fugitive near death on the desert, is taken in by August Naab, a stern Mormon cattleman, and finds refuge among Naab’s people and a quiet bond with Mescal. Holderness and rustlers close on the water while faith, duty, and a gun share the canyon. Belonging as a fight: love and violence as the heritage the Painted Desert will not postpone.

Author

Zane Grey (1872–1939) was the great popular mythmaker of the American frontier — one of the first authors to turn adventure fiction into a national industry. Obsessed with the real West, he travelled widely through Arizona and Utah and brought back stories of outlaws, ranchers, gunmen, and the women and landscapes that shaped their fate.
