Synopsis

Haseloff's characters embody the fundamental values--honor, duty, courage, and family--that prevailed on the American frontier and were instilled in the young Haseloff by her own "heroes," her mother and her grandmother. Her stories, in a sense, dramatize how these values endure when challenged by the adversities and cruelties of frontier existence. Her talent rests in her ability to tell a story with an economy of words and in the seemingly effortless way she uses language.

Author Bio

Cynthia Haselhoff was born in Vernon, Texas, and named after Cynthia Ann Parker, perhaps the best-known of 19th century white female Indian captives. The history and legends of the West were part of her upbringing in Arkansas. Haselhoff once said, “I love the West, perhaps not all of its reality, for much of it was cruel and hard, but certainly its dream and hope…” The Chains of Sarai Stone is her sixth frontier novel.
