  HOT BISCUITS. COLD GRAVES. 
   
   
    
  A hot meal, a hard drink, and maybe a friendly hand of poker—that's all Dewey "Mac" Mackenzie wants when he drifts into the small town of Harcourt City, Montana. What he gets is a fistful of trouble.  When he defends a saloon girl from the unwanted advances of some local toughs, he earns the wrath of the town’s powerful namesake, Oscar Harcourt. Harcourt rules this place with an iron fist—and a steely eyed gang of thugs. Now he has his eyes on a ranch belonging to the saloon girl and her brother. A ranch they won’t give up—without a fight. 
   
    
    
  To raise funds, the brother and sister arrange a cattle drive to Rattlesnake Creek, and they want Mac to join them. As an experienced cattle pusher and chuckwagon cook, he's sure to be an asset. But as a secret gunslinger with a price on his head, he might end up getting them all killed. 
   
   
    
  Now the cattle are ready to go. Mac is ready for anything. But with so many devils riding on their tails, Mac is ready to turn up the heat—and send them back to hell . . .

  This work provides a concise synthesis of the key insights and analysis of the book. It is an independent summary, not the original book, and has no affiliation with or endorsement from the original publication. Created for readers who want a clear, thought-provoking overview, it distills the central themes and ideas while preserving the depth and relevance of the work. 
  Set against the backdrop of the Vietnam War, this novel follows Frances “Frankie” McGrath, a young nurse who leaves behind a privileged but sheltered life in California to serve on the front lines. In the chaos of combat hospitals, she forges unbreakable bonds with fellow nurses while enduring the unrelenting toll of war. Returning home, Frankie expects gratitude but instead encounters silence, denial, and erasure of her service. Struggling with grief, trauma, and the loss of her place in a world that refuses to see her, she must learn to rebuild her life, find her voice, and honor the women who stood beside her. Both harrowing and inspiring, this story illuminates the courage of women whose sacrifices were long overlooked, asking what it truly means to serve, to survive, and to heal.
