The beautiful Sarah Turner reveals a long-kept secret that changes everything for her family and for the tiny remnant of Comanches who learn of it. Hub finds himself falling in love with Sarah, despite the fact that James expects to marry her. The roundup is put off again and again as he deals with a crooked police captain, an ex-slave from South Carolina, Missouri outlaws and a fighting bull. Andersonas Roundup is a western novel for readers who donat normally read westerns. Plenty of action, wonderful characters, a satisfying story.
