Lone Star Death - A Samantha Emmeline Slater Mystery (Paperback)

In 1880, Samantha Slater, a feisty 19-year old, comes to the central Texas town of Lowell's Crossing to take a job as a typewriter operator at the Lone Star newspaper. Before the day is over, George Stanley, her new boss, is dead and Samantha's nose for news is twitching. She doesn't believe that his spirited horse, Black Devil, killed him. The adventurous young lady becomes obsessed with finding the truth and in the process runs into life-threatening danger of her own. If the horse didn't kill George, then who did? There are suspects plenty, since he wasn't the most popular person in town. Fans of classic westerns, newspaper mysteries, cowboys and horses will love this thrilling action-adventure mystery tale of a feisty young woman who doesn't stop until she learns the truth. She might even find something she hadn't bargained for---love.
