Shadow Trails

Nightmares haunted the mind of the injured man, hour after hour. The smoke, the sound of guns, and the sights of battle were everywhere. He imagined men charging at one another with exploding rifles. He passed bloody soldiers groaning and lying on trampled cotton fields, and others gasping and wailing for water. The maddening noise and confusion continued when he saw a raven-haired woman running with a young child in her arms and a stranger lying dead in the rain.Shadow Trails is a story about a young man who has been shot three times and left for dead on the hot Nebraska prairie. He is rescued by a hermit only to find that he has amnesia. Searching for his former life, he takes a job on a cattle ranch where he falls in love with the owner’s daughter, but realizes that they have no future until he recovers his past. As his memory slowly returns he discovers that he is in a race against time to stop the men who shot him before they kill his family.
