Leaving Cheyenne — Bill Brooks
IT WAS THE WINTER WHEN HORSES FROZE. MEN WENT CRAZY-AND WOMEN WEPT.
Quint McCannon had fought and survived the Civil War -- and faced killers and madmen across the frontier. But nothing had prepared him for one brutal winter in Cheyenne. Or for a story told by a Texas Ranger: about a woman McCannon had once loved -- who was now running for her life.
With nothing left to keep him in Wyoming, with a Texas Ranger and a one-armed Denver dandy by his side, McCannon is riding out of Cheyenne, crossing Bill Cody's Nebraska, the Earp brothers' Dodge City, Bill Hickok's Kansas. But a thousand miles of dancing prairie grass, howling thunderstorms, whores, renegades, and murderers lie before him. For Quint McCannon, finding a woman on the run means going up against the ghosts of his own past and a bloodlusting killer -- all the way to the Rio Grande.
