Painted Horses: A Novel
by Malcolm BrooksThe national bestseller that &“reads like a cross between Charles Frazier&’s Cold Mountain and Ernest Hemingway&’s A Farewell to Arms&” (The Dallas Morning News).

Working ahead of a major dam project, she has one summer to prove nothing of historical value will be lost in the flood.

John H inspires Catherine to see beauty in the stark landscape, and her heart opens to more than just the vanished past.
