Book excerpt: The year is 1885 and Abigail Peacock is resisting what seems to be an inevitable future��a sensible career as a teacher and marriage to the local storeowner. But then she buys a rifle, and everything changes. During target practice one day, she encounters Shep January, a dying outlaw. In return for her help, he teaches her how to really shoot. When she kills the Pinkerton who is tracking January, Abigail must make a drastic move. She sets out on the road to Bill Cody's Wild West Show in New York City, where she not only befriends Annie Oakley but also falls in love with Shea Wyatt. When Shea is wrongfully accused of the Pinkerton's murder and put in prison, Abigail and Annie Oakley commandeer the help of Metis Rebellion leader Gabriel Dumont, and stage a dramatic jailbreak. This is the absorbing tale of one tenacious woman's journey set against the backdrop of the Canadian Wilderness and American Wild West, told by four narrators��including Annie Oakley and Gabriel Dumont.
