John Larson, opgegroeid in afgelegen regio's van de wereld, put uit uitgebreide ervaringen om werken te creëren met een diep gevoel voor plaats en landschap.

Met een achtergrond in filosofie en literatuur duikt Larson in de kunst van het verhalen vertellen, waarbij hij meeslepende verhalende ervaringen creëert.

"In the spring of 1885, seventeen-year-old Jessilyn Harney finds herself orphaned and alone on her family's homestead. Desperate to fend off starvation and predatory neighbors, she cuts off her hair, binds her chest, saddles her beloved mare, and sets off across the mountains to find her outlaw brother, Noah, and bring him home. A talented sharpshooter herself, Jess’s quest lands her in the employ of the territory’s violent, capricious Governor, whose militia is also hunting Noah–dead or alive. Wrestling with her brother’s outlaw identity, and haunted by questions about her own, Jess must outmaneuver those who underestimate her, ultimately rising to become a hero in her own right."-- Provided by publisher
