In Book 3, Sean Thomas leaves behind his violent past to begin a new life in the desolate land of Western Canada. He winds up in the small, sparsely populated community along the Highwood River. Working the land of a new farm for a lonely widow, he's ready to live a 'quiet' life. Patrick Sullivan embarks on a journey to find the reclusive outlaw with notions of peaceful reconciliation. However, his unexpected presence will spark more than just bitter memories to emerge again. In the words of Mandy's song, it's a story of love, sadness, excitement, and courage with life's lessons, the most truthful being, 'life is not fair'. And despite that, one still has in his heart, the ability to FORGIVE. **************************************** 'Montana Son' is written like a Laura Ingalls-Wilder novel, but with less than perfect characters filling the pages, in towns hindered by more than just God-awful weather and incurable disease. It's chock-full of idioms, cowboy expressions, and historical facts.
