The Work of Wolves by Kent Meyers

The Work of Wolves by Kent Meyers

Winner of the Mountains and Plains Booksellers Association Book Award
When fourteen-year-old Carson Fielding buys his first horse?a run-down,
wild-eyed roan?from the wealthiest rancher in his South Dakota border town,
he learns a hard lesson about dealing with powerful men. Years later and
now completely broke, Carson grudgingly agrees to work for the rancher,
training his horses and teaching his wife, Rebecca, to ride. But Carson and
Rebecca fall in love, angering her vengeful husband and setting off a cruel
chain of events that shock even the most hardened residents of the town.
With help from his friends from the nearby Lakota Indian reservation,
Carson, now wiser to ways of the American west, challenges the rancher's
rule, fiercely determined to protect what he holds most dear.
Fine characterizations, crisp dialogue and a fully realized sense of place make The Work of Wolves compelling. -Denver Post

The kind of book that demands and rewards fierce loyalty. I instantly fell under its spell. -Christian Science Monitor
