Robert Conley spins a fast-action tall tale salted with Western humor.-Elmer Kelton, author of The Time It Never Rained
Half Cherokee and Civil War veteran Captain Skylar Garret returns to the home of Phillip Garret his white father, seeking an inheritance that he believes to have belonged to his late mother. Intertwined now into the lives of his three half brothers-one a vocal atheist, one an aspiring minister, and the other a black slave boy who Phillip Garret doesn't claim-Skylar finds himself in more than a quarrel for money, but also in the middle of a love triangle with his own father, and ultimately on trial for patricide. Will Skylar Garret be the next hanging from Judge Parker's court?
