Description
“Bald Headed Woman,†book two of Don Hepler’s Frontier Justice Trilogy picks up the footsteps of young Katie Withrow. Katie’s father has been killed in a brutal ambush and Katie is relieved and grateful when Walter Donaue appears out of nowhere to rescue her. Walter immediately takes to the girl and promises to protect her. When Walter falls ill, Katie vows to save the life of the man who she believes saved hers.
Marshal Wiley discovers the body of Katie's father. Hot on the trail of the murderer, Wiley is shot and left for dead by the man he is chasing. Virginia McGilliam, a young woman living alone on the prairie, finds Wiley barely clinging to life. As she slowly nurses him back to health, Virginia becomes poignantly aware of the lack of human companionship in her life.
Virginia's hair had fallen out shortly after her parents’ death, and her baldness was just one more reason to remain in solitude. Suddenly Virginia begins to dread the day when Wiley will leave, but the man who shot him is very much at liberty and Wiley has a job to do. He can't let little things like falling in love with a bald woman stand in the way of justice.
Meanwhile, Long Hair's 10 year old daughter, KapKap, is bitten by a snake at the worst possible moment. The Army is approaching and Yellow Knife, now leader of a Sioux tribe that participated in the Custer massacre, knows his people will be shown little mercy by the soldiers. The Sioux must move on, even if it means leaving the little girl behind to die.
Elijah Leech, Stacy's mountain man brother, has no love for the Sioux, and he has from time to time, done his bit to help the Army out. But the sick child he finds alone in an abandoned tepee isn't so much an Indian as she is a little girl. Much to his surprise, the reclusive mountain man finds himself feeling protective of her.
Can Elijah keep KapKap alive despite the deadly snakebite? And even if he does, will her tribe survive to welcome her home?
“Bald Headed Woman†is the second book of the Frontier Justice series. If you enjoyed the first novel, “Indian Trouble†please feel free to leave a review in the comments section.
