Publisher's Synopsis
A dance hall singer, a jealous young suitor, a powerful older rival, an ambush in the dark of the night, a wealthy family, and a posse made up of today's legends of the Old West. DEATH OF A DANCE HALL SINGER is the epic tale of how fate converged on the lives of Dora Hand, Spike Kenedy, and Bat Masterson. Told through the lives of Dora Hand, popular entertainer across the west, Spike Kenedy, the spoiled son of a Texas cattle magnate, and Bat Masterson-legendary lawman, and how they intertwine across the years until fate brings them together. Dora Hand leaves her Boston well-to-do life for adventure and a chance to be an entertainer; with James 'Spike' Kenedy, son of Texas cattle baron, Mifflin Kenedy, spending his youth finding trouble, herding cattle, and dodging the law. And Bat Masterson, leaving home, working as a buffalo hunter, tracker, Indian fighter, lawman and more.
