Beschreibung

Step into the rugged heart of Montana's Bear Paw country with B.M. Bower's The Flying U Ranch, a classic Western tale brimming with humor, camaraderie, and frontier challenges. Life at the Flying U Ranch flows with the rhythm of cowboy routines until the arrival of Miguel Rapponi, a flamboyant newcomer whose ostentatious attire and aloof demeanor unsettle the tight-knit group known as the Happy Family. As tensions simmer, a more pressing threat emerges: thousands of sheep encroach upon the cattlemen's territory, igniting the age-old conflict between cowboys and sheepherders. With the ranch's leaders, Chip and the Old Man, away in Chicago, the Happy Family must navigate these challenges, balancing pride, prejudice, and the preservation of their way of life. Bower's narrative, rich with authentic dialogue and vivid depictions of ranch life, offers readers a window into the complexities of early 20th-century Western America, where loyalty and resilience are tested against the backdrop of an evolving frontier.

    When Mercy Mulcahy was 40 years old, she was accused of killing her elderly and tyrannical father. Now, at the end of her life, she has written a book about what really happened on that fateful night of Christmas Eve, 1989. 
    The tragic and beautiful Mercy has devoted her life to protecting Star from her father, Star's grandfather. His behavior so blighted her own life – she never wanted it to touch her darling daughter. 
    Yet Star won't even read the manuscript. Star's contempt for Mercy is as painful as it is inexplicable. 
    Why? What has Mercy done? What is she hiding? Was her father's death, as many believe, an assisted suicide? 
    Or something even more sinister? 
    In this book, nothing is what it seems on the surface, and everywhere there are emotional twists and surprises. 
    Set in Ireland and California, Blue Mercy is a compelling novel, combing lyrical description with a page-turning style. It is an enthralling tale of love, loss, and the ever-present possibility of redemption.
