Independence Day, 1871. The Civil War is finished, but in "Bleeding
Kansas," old wounds heal slowly. The shooting started in Kansas
long before Ft. Sumter, and if some men have their way, it will
continue, even six years after Appomattox Court House. Crill
Falkner, a volunteer Union infantryman from New York, has come west
to forget the war, and to try to leave behind the anguish he found
at home after the fighting was done. With the help of Bonnie
Little, an English widow whose travels, like his, have halted in
Kansas, he has made the small town of Marietta his home. And he has
reluctantly accepted the lawman's badge the town fathers pressed
upon him. Alexander Chastain, a former Confederate guerilla and
veteran of the border wars, is known to the residents of Marietta
as Bernard Smith. He has come to town to settle a score. Chastain
continued the fight against the hated free-soilers after the peace
was signed. Due largely to the efforts of Crill Falkner, Chastain
came to grief at Marietta in 1866, losing several men in the
process, and more to the point, a large measure of his pride. He
has kept his head down for a while, but now it's time to have
another go at the Redlegs and their Yankee lawman. Falkner may have
come out on top the first time they butted heads, but things are
about to change.
