"Winding Stair is True Grit for grown-ups... A significant and
highly entertaining contribution to the popular literature of the
American West."--The New York Times Fort Smith, Arkansas, in 1890,
is a haven of justice presiding over thousands of square miles
known as the Indian Nation, a land that harbors the most hardened
criminals in the country. When a woman is found murdered, young
attorney Eben Pay, newly arrived to the territory, is pulled into a
posse that follows a trail of blood and destruction. Among the dead
he discovers a survivor, the beautiful, traumatized Jennie
Thrasher, and the question of what she witnessed hangs like a storm
cloud over the investigation. From the trial to the courtroom,
Winding Stair is a classic historical novel that brings to vivid
life a bygone era.
