Publisher's Synopsis
Irish lass Katie is having a grand adventure on the Oregon Trail. Eager and curious, she is determined not to fall in love with Leon, the handsome guide. Her days are busy, but there's always time to investigate the odd goings-on of the surly wagon-master... But Katie is not all happy-go-lucky. She is a haunted spirit...the potato crop in Ireland was poor last year - what would happen her beloved family if it failed again? For she could have saved them all from hardship if she'd chosen...Katie would never forgive herself if anything happened to her loved ones in Kilmaconnor. Meantime, her curious nature might cause trouble between her and Leon...for she loves nothing better than a mystery, and there are secrets in plenty on this wagon train. Readers have described this as a story with endearing characters, many surprises and praised its descriptions of the magnificent scenery of America's West. The author is Irish, and fell so much in love with the Pacific Northwest when she came to live in Vancouver, WA in 1995, and intrigued with its historical importance, that she had to weave a story about it...and hopes to convey her own love for the Northwest in the pages of this book.
