The Lady Pinkerton Gets Her Man — Jerrie Hurd
HER WILL AGAINST HIS WIT
Being a Lady Pinkerton detective gave Dayle Dobson an outlet for her restless energy and a whole other meaning to "getting her man." Smart and fearless, she arrived in a wind-whipped Wyoming mining town prepared to help the big boss' wife rescue Chinese child prostitutes, even if that meant inciting Tong wars and racial hatred. It was her job, and she always did her job.
Harry Bryant, handsome and mysterious, has never met a woman he couldn't woo or a miner he couldn't organize, never mind that organizing is against the law. A strike in this town will stop the coal fueling America's trains. Knowing that, he figures he's one "outlaw" who will be dictating terms to the President of the United States.
Vividly bringing to life an exciting but little-known historical event, Dayle's story quickly engages all the emotions stirred by injustice...all the life-threatening drama of a far-reaching intrigue...and all the poignancy of a woman's heart-wrenching choice between the law and what she knows is right -- not to mention the man she loves.
They came from all points to be part of the grand adventure...intrepid women carving new lives on the great American frontier.
