Helpful Score: 1
The book that caused me to stop reading the Calder series. Couldn't get into the storyline, felt like characters that have been built for 5 books were suddenly acting out of character.
Very fast reading.
Good story.
Great read
One of Janey Dailey's continuing story about the Calder family-- loved it
Chase Calder has no recollection of who he is, why he came to Fort Worth ...or who tried to put a bullet in his head the night that a cowboy named Laredo Smith saved his life. Laredo recognized him as the owner of Montana's Triple C Ranch-but according to the local papers, Chase has just been declared dead, the victim of a fiery car crash.
At the novel's outset, patriarch Chase Calder is shot and presumed dead while on a business trip in Texas. The incident leaves Chase with a mild head wound and a case of amnesia. The only people he feels he can trust are the man who saved him, a mysterious cowboy named Laredo Smith, and Laredo's mother, Hattie, who is a registered nurse. When Laredo learns Chase's identity from the hotel where Chase had been staying, he packs Hattie and Chase in his truck and heads to the Triple C Ranch in Montana, where Chase's "funeral" is underway. There he forms an alliance with Chase's widowed daughter-in-law, Jessy, and they make plans to stash Chase away in an old line-shack on the ranch until he regains his memory or until Laredo unmasks Chase's shooter.
