Thomas Hall, a young nineteenth-century Bostonian, goes West to escape his rocky relationship with his mother. An idealistic newspaperman and dreamer, Hall is fascinated by Wild West shows and dime novels. He boards a train bound for Nevada but only goes as far as New Mexico. Hall's journey exposes him to love and death, greed and betrayal, and helps him learn that the truth isn't always what is printed in black and white.
Prize-winning novelist Kate Horsley lives in Albuquerque.
"Thomas joins Horsley's other protagonists who can take care of themselves and others. Like them Thomas has his ideals and failings, and Horsley's readers love that in a person."
