This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places, and incidents either are the product of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, business establishments, events or locales is entirely coincidental and not intended by the author.

This story is meant only for adults. It contains adult language, s****l situations, and possibly disturbing scenes, including flashbacks of child physical, emotional, and s****l abuse, which may cause or trigger disturbing reactions.
This book, though it takes place in the Black Hills of South Dakota is not meant to be a Black Hills travel guide. Nor is it a ‘how to’ ranch guide. Artistic license was heavily used in the topography, location, creation of towns, ranch settings, terrain, and how a ranch is operated. If an event or a place was needed for the story such a situation was knowingly invented.
I hope the residents of the beautiful area of the Black Hills will forgive me for playing fast and loose with their world. And I hope the ranchers out there, who have all my respect for an arduous, thankless job that only true lovers of the land and ranching would continue to deal with year after year, will forgive me for all the things I got wrong…some of it knowingly and probably much unknowingly.
Thank you readers. I sincerely hope you come to love Santee, Ruarke, and their adventures as much as I do.
