To make a new life, she'll have to learn how to breathe again .
. .
By the time Dominic and Moira St. Clair get their ailing
sister, Odessa, to Colorado Springs in the winter of 1883, she is
nearly dead. Odessa has been seriously ailing for the past year
from consumption, an illness that claimed the lives of four of her
younger brothers, prompting her father to send his only surviving
children west to chase the cure.
Several days after her arrival, Odessa witnesses what she fears is
the murder of miner Sam O'Toole, friend and neighbor to the
charming Bryce McAllan. What's more, Sam leaves her a poem
containing clues that seem to direct her to his mine, which is
purported to carry a fantastic vein of silver. But if she is ever
to rise from her bed again, she must first concentrate on
conquering the giant that threatens her--consumption. Indeed, she
must learn to breathe again--daring to embrace her life, her
future, and hope in her God.
