About this listen

Lone Tree Claim by C K Van Dam is a stirring historical tale of courage, survival, and second chances on America’s untamed plains. Narrated with emotional depth by Catherine Divaris and produced and published by Audiobook Publishing Services, this immersive audiobook brings the Dakota frontier to life with rich atmosphere and vivid storytelling.

After losing her husband during the Civil War, Katie Rose Kelly refuses to let tragedy define her future. Determined to rebuild her life, she journeys west to the vast Dakota Territory, where she stakes a 160-acre claim and becomes a sheepherder—one of the few women bold enough to take on such a challenge.

Alone on the sweeping prairie, Katie must confront more than harsh weather and isolation. Powerful cattle barons view sheep as a threat to their grazing lands, and they are willing to intimidate anyone—especially a woman—to protect their interests. With relentless grit, Katie pushes back against nature, danger, and prejudice to carve out a place of her own.

Along the way, she discovers unexpected friendships, community, and the possibility of love—reminding her that even in the toughest landscapes, hope can take root.

Perfect for fans of frontier history, strong female leads, homesteading stories, and American West historical fiction, Lone Tree Claim is a moving tribute to resilience, independence, and the brave women who shaped the westward expansion.

Step onto the prairie and experience Katie’s unforgettable journey of hardship, heart, and triumph.
