1929. This is the story of two youngsters who took the law into their own hands. They had good precedent. Their cattle-baron families had never invoked any other justice save a six-shooter, and for seventy years the Hensleys and the Kershaws had waged a bloody feud for the possession of Eden Valley. Now, Nate, the last Hensley, and raven-haired Lorraine, the remaining Kershaw, were fighting again for their beloved heritage, but this time together. For a serpent had come into Eden to nest on the Valley lands. He knew how irrigation projects and power dams could be manipulated for unholy profits; he fought in a new way with guild and mob propaganda and twisted legalities. So Lorry and Nate went to war for their own, but in the ways of their own-ancestral six-shooters and all. Here is a story that only the inimitable Kyne could create for you.
