Summary
In half a second, with one bullet, he became hopelessly entangled with the legend of Mare Sheehan, and she thinks she likes him entangled with her like this. He wrote himself into the story of her life and made a place for himself among the wreckage, and if he dies now, she’ll be left standing at the edge of the crater he left behind.
When he wakes up, she will tell him, “You survived. And I like you alive, and here, and with me.” She will tell him, and she will take his hand and tell him he did a great thing, after all.

Summary
“What was it, James, all those men before did that didn’t please you?” Francis asks quietly, a menacing gleam of certainty crystallising in his gaze, and James feels his stomach drop at the warm, queasy sense that some trap has been laid that he’s been far too foolish to see. “Or, rather," Francis whispers, "what did they fail to do? Tell me, so that I may not repeat their mistakes.”
James has a secret, and Francis has a way of seeing far too much.

Summary
“You’ve been gone a while,” James said.
Seven months. He’d set out as soon as the weather cleared up, loathe to be cooped up with the reminders of his failure any longer.
“You know how it is,” Francis said, following the line connecting their bodies, from Fitzjames’s hand, with its smooth skin and long fingers, up his arm and shoulder, to the part where his clavicle was visible under the robe that had slipped, over his throat with the Adam’s apple working as Fitzjames swallowed, and lastly, to his face. When he met Fitzjames’s eyes, everything that needed to be said had been said.The year is 1898. Francis Crozier is a bounty hunter who loves the road more than anyone else he’s ever met. James Fitzjames is a cowboy looking for his place in the world.
