THEY WERE THE FRONTIER HEALERS
In the chaos that followed the Civil War, a turbulent tide of men and women surged across the Mississippi to escape the unspeakable horrors of a broken and humiliated South. Some chose to cast their lot in the sprawling, raucous mining town of Virginia City. Among them was the beautiful half-breed, Yvonne Reaunais, and her daughter Tangeree. Yvonne's burning ambition was to provide her daughter with the education that would open up the tantalizing new world of medicine that had been denied her.
Together they administered their healing herbal remedies to the sick and dying. Together they defied the threats of Matthew Lassiter, who ran Virginia City like a fiefdom. And together, they fought against heavy odds to improve the quality of living in a brutal frontier town - and sought their own private fulfillment in love and life.
