Stolen Horses by Dan O'brien

The story of the residents of a small western plains town and the turmoil that results from the colliding interests of its native inhabitants and newcomers
""Interconnected lives in the small western Nebraska town of McDermot navigate the rocky transition from rustic old ways to new money opportunities and opportunists in the slow-burning latest from O'Brien""—Publishers Weekly|""[Dan O'Brien] gives a fairly large number of characters individual attention, making them, with their good traits and bad, all quite memorable.""—NPR's All Things Considered|""Some books take you beyond reading. They take you inside, into your feelings and emotions. I ""felt"" this book. I believe that anyone with any land ownership in their lineage will also feel Stolen Horses.""—Nancy Simpson, Book Vault Bookstore|""Like a runaway team of Clydesdales, O'Brien's writing grabs the reader and pulls them along page by page. Grab the covers tightly, and ride along with Stolen Horses.""—Alan J. Bartels, Nebraska Life
