"SPUR AWARD WINNER C.K. CRIGGER'S FAN-FAVORITE THE WOMAN WHO... SERIES IS BACK WITH ANOTHER HIGH STAKES ADVENTURE IN THE WILD, WILD WEST! When January Billings receives a letter informing her not only of a grandfather she knew nothing about, but also that a meeting with the attorney will include something to her advantage, she is both angry and intrigued. Eli Pasco convinces her to follow up on the matter. A second note telling her to stay away "on pain of death" only makes the decision easier. January is not a woman to be cowed by threats. Turns out her grandfather was enormously wealthy and he's left most of his fortune to January. Three male cousins expected to inherit the fortune and, one way or another, mean to see they do. Matters escalate when January meets two more unnamed heirs-underage kids she begins to feel responsible for. Arson, arrows, kidnapping, and murder are all in the cousins' bag of tricks. As January fights to stay alive and keep the kids safe, Eli and a few friends join her in her mission to see justice done"-- Provided by publisher.
