They should have prejudged the prairie with more respect.

It was wild, mercurial, unpredictable, and dangerous. Storms, stampedes, and savagery confronted them at every turn. Some did not survive. For those who survived, they would never be the same.

Lawrence was traveling forward to forget the past. So was his family.

Then a human disguised as a mud-caked, leaf-laden phantasm emerged as if from the very earth–a young woman beaten down by circumstances. She surprised many, worried some, enraged others, and
changed Lawrence. She was not what anyone expected.
