Every clue leads her closer to the secrets buried at her dig that could cost her more than her career—they could cost her life.

The Women of Bandit Bend

C.C. Harrison

Straitlaced Tally Tisdale and her free-spirited younger sister Ivy take over their missing father’s homestead on secluded Bandit Bend. Land Agent Goodnight Pettyjohn warns them of unimaginable hardships—days of backbreaking work, deadly mountain storms, hungry bears, and ruthless, trigger-happy outlaws. He doesn’t mention that the railroad is eager to take over that particular claim. Tally, strong willed and adventurous, welcomes the challenge. But not so Ivy, and when bandit Birch Quinn returns to dig up stagecoach loot he’d buried there, Ivy sees him and the gold as a way to escape the drudgery and boredom of homesteading.
