The setting for this story is historically accurate, beginning in San Francisco in the year 1875 and ending in Wyoming shortly after General Custer's defeat at the Little Big Horn in 1876. The action follows San Francisco shipping magnate Thatcher Jones as he investigates the mysterious disappearance of Lady Jane and a Russian Count who were ballooning around the world. Challenging the official reports, Thatcher hires retired lawman Emerson Palmer to find the truth about their demise. Their journey carries us through the imposing landscape of the wild west in the untamed Indian territory of Wyoming. It is a grand love story surrounded by the shocking violence of what some consider the other American Civil War - the struggle between the U.S. Federal Government and the Native Americans of the western plains. Star Bird has beautifully drawn descriptions of time, place and characters grounded in the international politics of that era with an ending that leaves the reader holding their breath. - Thomas Steinbeck -
