This book started with a great deal of promise; the story line is quirky enough to offer an unusual mail-order wife scenario. Essentially, between the time a jewelry-store owner/robber courts a refugee from the Chicago fire and she arrives in Wyoming, Jarrod Ledbetter is killed. A detective who has assumed his name (Simon Garr) is trying to find the loot ($300,000) Ledbetter has hidden.
Garr wants to send the mail-order bride (Natasha O'Sullivan) back where she came from, but 2 members of Ledbetter's far-ranging gang suddenly appear and know all about the pending marriage. Natasha seems to know a great deal about Ledbetter's business and Garr worries that she may be part of the gang -- so he wants to keep her near to find out what she knows.
There was a great deal of inconsistency in the main characters. Natasha wavers between a sweet, innocent bride-to-be and a knowledgeable strumpet. Garr couldn't tell if he loved or hated the new bride. There was just too much inner talking in both characters; it made the story drag. Some of the devices used to make the story move seemed hokey. Very average.
