Dory Returns

It’s 1869 in the New Mexico Territory and the frontier legend of Dory McLee is only growing. The farm girl is as skilled at riding, shooting and chasing criminals as much as her male counterparts.

Back east, thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands, know about Dory thanks to the sensationalized dime books and pamphlets, yelling out her western moxie. Their stories, including the taming of a grizzly bear, may be exaggerated. Yet people have become enchanted with the young woman.

In the real world, the stakes are high for Dory as she is helping a friend, Abby Davis, find the killer of her grandfather. Officials suspect Harold Reese, a less than scrupulous businessman who is trying to profit from a train coming to town. He’s prepared to commit any kind of crime. Somehow Dory, with help from her beau, Evan Henson, must find a way to stop Reese before more people are hurt or killed.

Another classic western with respectful romance and women as strong frontier folk from author William Black.

Note: Each book in the Post-Civil War Western Justice series is a standalone story that can be read out of order.
