Savage country [large print] / Robert Olmstead.
In September 1873, Elizabeth Coughlin, a widow bankrupted by her husband's folly and death, embarks on a buffalo hunt with her mysteriuous brother-in-law, Michael. She hopes to salvage something of her former life and the lives of the hired men and their families who depend on her. The hunt that her husband had planned was his last hope for saving their land. Elizabeth and Michael plunge south through natural dangers like rattlesnakes, wildfire, and flash floods, across the dead line demarcating Indian Territory from Kansas. They are on borrowed time: The Comanche are in winter quarters, and the cruel work of slaughtering the buffalo is unraveling their souls.--back cover
