The Middle of Somewhere - Stories of Life on the High Plains (Hardcover)

From the war-torn foothills of the Little Bighorns to the tragedy that is modern ranch life, this spellbinding collection of short fiction celebrates ordinary people struggling to do what's right. A cavalry trooper dismisses his premonitions of disaster for the fort, but as winter deepens, he can hardly deny the grisly precision of his dreams. Two brothers separated by circumstance must reconcile the ways they have grown apart. A young bull rider-turned-burglar searches for the courage to face his weaknesses, and earn the respect of a good man...
