Immediately following the events detailed in the novel ACT OF CONTRITION, Trent Carter, former state policeman and Colfax County Sheriff's Department detective, has finally retired to peacefully live out the remainder of his days with his new wife, Maggie, on her horse ranch east of Raton, New Mexico—or so he thinks. But when he responds to an urgent call for assistance from his former boss Ben Ferguson, who is investigating an unusual murder at the historic ruins of a stagecoach stop on the old Santa Fe Trail, Trent is swept into a convoluted mystery involving political assassination, a secret paramilitary organization, a missing helicopter, two missing girls, and the inexplicable presence of a ghostly Ute Indian warrior who will help bring Trent face to face with his own family's troubled past. LAND OF MY SOJOURN spans 150 years, from the Civil War through the infamous Colfax County War to the present; from the Goodnight-Loving cattle drives to the gold fields of Elizabethtown; and from colonial Santa Fe to present day Amsterdam. Along the way, we meet some of Trent’s earliest ancestors, along with the larger-than-life historic characters who helped to forge the history of New Mexico during some of its wildest and bloodiest days.
