Synopsis

Wounded, dehydrated, and escaping a violent feud with the men of Bob Sutton’s ranch, Trace Jordan is near collapse when he descends from the heat of the desert into a cool, secluded canyon. He wakes to find a beautiful woman gently nursing him back to health. Strong and proud, Maria Cristina has also suffered at the hands of Sutton and his men. The experience has left her hostile and defiant. Trace, intrigued by Maria’s grit and determination, can’t help trying to peel back her layers—but his attraction makes her a target.
 
Sutton’s men are watching and waiting for Trace to show himself. If he escapes, Maria will have to face them alone. But if he convinces her to go with him, Trace and Maria will have to survive a heat-blasted, waterless desert. And if that doesn’t kill them, the Apaches will.

This book was originally published in 1956. I first read it in 1976. I was looking for a western to read and decided to re-read Louis L’Amour. The book is more of a romance story than what L’Amour usually writes. Trace Jordan is on the trail of the men who killed his partner and stole his horses. He......more

Goodreads review by Tom on December 14, 2012

Oh Louis L'Amour... Who else can write what's basically a romance novel about a horse-wrangler bleeding his way through the Mexico/Arizona desert while bad dudes and Indians chase him?

An early L'Amour novel, a little leaner and grittier than his later books. An entertaining chase story from the master.......more

Goodreads review by Benjamin on July 17, 2012

This is the 72nd Louis L'Amour book I've read. Wow, I can't believe I just typed that. I started when I was about 12 and have just kept on reading them. They serve as good fillers when you need a quick read between weightier efforts. This one represents what L'Amour does best: a lone wounded man in d......more
