Synopsis

The MacLeod Family Chronicles • Book 1

Three dead companions. A hostile country. A forbidden love.

In the untamed territory of Spanish-controlled Nuevo Mexico, survival may depend on one man’s determination to find the woman he loves.

William MacLeod is trapped in a land that wants him imprisoned and sent to a Mexican firing squad. He has every reason to flee. But when rumors suggest the woman he loves may still be alive, escape is no longer an option he can accept.

Pursued by Miguel Griego, a man consumed by humiliation and rejection, and a band of hired gunmen, MacLeod rides deep into dangerous territory. His search leads him across a scorching, unforgiving landscape toward a secluded grove along a wandering river, where a disturbing rumor promises that a beautiful woman will be sold to the highest bidder.

MacLeod is not the only man following that rumor.

As rival pursuers close in, the race to find the woman becomes a deadly contest of determination, ambition, and survival. But is she truly the woman MacLeod seeks, or has hope led him into another dangerous trap?

Set against the rugged landscapes and turbulent history of the American Southwest, In the Shadow of Vargas is a gripping historical Western adventure filled with danger, intrigue, ruthless adversaries, and a love worth risking everything to find.

Enter the world of The MacLeod Family Chronicles, where loyalty is tested, survival is never guaranteed, and the past can prove more dangerous than the wilderness.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

E. PAUL BERGERON moved to Southern California as a young man, and there he became aware of the rich cultural heritage of the Spanish Southwest and the inevitable clash with westward-bound Americans. His research into this era produced this “Land in Turmoil” series of historical fiction, a time stretching from Mexican independence to the annexation of California and the building of a transcontinental railroad. Bergeron was born in Montreal, Canada, of Scottish and French parents. He and his wife now live in Hayden Lake, Idaho, where he is working on the next book in the series.
