From the Tony Hillerman Contest winning short story about a rich ad exec who buys a ranch and gets more than he bargained for, to a tale of two strong Cherokee women trying to survive the Civil War, to a tale of a hitchhiker who might be over a hundred, to a chance meeting between a young priest and a go-go dancer, to the sad revelation of a dying mother, to the tale of the promise of an Orthodox Jewish merchant in Depression-era Oklahoma, M. Kent Anderson's short stories seem to never end up where you think they are headed. The novella that ends the book, tells of the last big case of a retirement-aged FBI agent trying to make sense of a changing Bureau and his changing life. All the while, he is trying to solve a rash of crimes apparently committed by people who, by all rights, should be dead. If you love the mystery of the West, this book will bring surprise and joy, and late on a windy prairie night, it might even cause a shiver or a tear. So, saddle up for a great ride. And while you are at it, check the wind.
