Publisher's Summary
The shadows are the smalls. The between. They are brought about by the little acts. The little sins. Not the big ones. Sometimes, justice and the law differ because of them.
At least, that is the theory offered by Judge Stone in the 1870’s post-civil war Colorado Territory. Being a federal judge and deciding the law often present conflicting problems. Nothing is easy. Clear choices are hard to come by.
When the murder trial of a Denver City lawyer in the town of Alamosa erupts in violence, it ignites a series of events that could endanger not just the people of Colorado but be the powder keg starting a second civil war between east and west. A vast conspiracy exposed in both this world and the next.
It all hinges on the guilt or innocence of one woman. But she is already dead. Set in the richly described post-civil war America, Alamosa is a thought-provoking western adventure. It is both a classic western and an anti-western, calling into question many norms of the genre and providing clever insight into the human condition: what it means to bring justice, and how justice by itself might not be enough.
