Enjoyable story that goes between two main characters set in different time periods. We alternate between the story of Hannie Gossett set in 1875 and Benny Silva set in 1987. Both stories were interesting to read but Hannie's was so much more. I flew through her chapters but not so much on Benny's. We didn't have the suspense and action that was set in Hannie's stories and also a lot of times in Benny's chapters, she would wander off on a tangent and it would tend to bore me. Most of the time it didn't seem necessary to do that but she did it often. Other than that, it was a good story to tell and even better one to learn about.
