Patricia Potter brings a tortured man to life in this (slightly too long) story.
Wade Foster has lost 2 families: his family-of-origin and later his wife & son. He carries a boat-load of grief, rage and guilt.
Wade Foster really suffers ? and we are allowed to share his nightmares and somber history. I liked the way Potter took her time sharing his history; it was too gruesome to take in quickly.
Mary Jo and her son are very likeable. Mary Jo seems to be perfect except for her (understandable) hate of Indians. She grows in the story too. Jeff, the son, drives much of the plot and makes huge leaps toward adulthood.
I particularly liked the fact that Wade was injured throughout the book and the author did NOT have him solve everything by himself.
I prefer historical tales and this one offered a different spin on some of the men who did NOT fight in the Civil War. I didn?t realize how famous some of those renegade bands were prior to reading this book.
