Just as things began to work out in Doris Grant's life, ghosts from the past hunt her down. She must leave everything she knew and go into the unknown. The 1890s offered few opportunities for women who had to find their way alone in the world. The country was experiencing great droughts and the worst economic depression to date. Even in this dire circumstance, many found hope with the chance to obtain free land in the Oklahoma Territory. Doris is intrigued with the challenge of claiming land on the Cherokee Strip Land Run of 1893. Perhaps this is an opportunity to begin anew.
