For fifteen years, retired newspaper editor Elliott Madison worked on a book about his great-grandfather's terrifying voyage around Cape Horn and his great-grandmother's tragic journey on the California Trail, the homestead they developed into a prosperous ranch in Mendocino County. Now, in the waning hours of his life, he recalls the day he was contacted by a woman from New York City named Phoebe Crighton, who claims a distant relative was employed as a hired hand on his family's ranch. Elliott is perfectly willing to believe that might be true, but when Ms. Crighton abruptly flies out to San Francisco to meet him, he is at once stunned and appalled by her insistence that this relative, a former Civil War infantryman, and his great-grandmother were lovers.
