    Summary

    1872, Nevada Territory.
    Seven years since Gale left Twelvetrees for the last time, seven months since he laid his wife to rest, seven knots in a red ribbon from a sweetheart, woven before he went off to fight in a rich man's war.

    A man cannot step twice into the same river, for it's not the same river, and he's not the same man (Heraclitus).

    In a lawless town on the edge of nowhere, Madge Undersee puts her trust in the one man she's tried so hard to forget, and Gale Hawthorne struggles against the river of blood that forces him to remember.
