A Madonna of the Desert is a novel written by Elia W. Peattie. The story is set in the American Southwest during the early 20th century and follows the life of a young woman named Mary Hope. Mary is a devout Catholic who lives in a small desert town and spends her days caring for her aging father and tending to the local church. One day, Mary discovers a wounded man in the desert and brings him back to her home to care for him. The man, who is a notorious outlaw, begins to fall in love with Mary and is torn between his desire for her and his life of crime. As the story unfolds, Mary must navigate her own feelings for the outlaw while also dealing with the disapproval of her fellow townspeople and the danger that comes with harboring a criminal. A Madonna of the Desert is a tale of love, faith, and redemption set against the backdrop of the rugged and unforgiving desert landscape.THIS 48 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Under the Sunset: Harper's Novelettes, by Elia W.
