WOW!! This novel is full of twists and turns. It is set in Prohibition-era Montana and gives you a peek into what life was like back then. Dallas weaves a wonderful tale as only she can.

This was an okay book. I really didn't get into it though. It's set in the 1800s about a lady who runs a brothel, The Chili Queen. It's also about swindling people out of their money. There are some twists and turns though and some comical moments.

A good tale. Takes place in the days of the so called wild west.

Like other books by this author the setting is the "wild west". However, the characters in this novel are less virtuous than those in other novels. The plot takes several twists and turns as we follow the lives of a bank robber, a madam, and a couple of scam artists. An interesting book, but not quite believable.
