Richman writes...with the sure hand of a formidable storyteller." -- STEPHEN TRIMBLE , author of Bargaining for Eden When Nell Jorgensen buried her husband, she buried a piece of herself--and more than one secret. Now, thirty-six years later, the rift between Nell and her daughter Kate threatens to implode as Kate, now forty-six and a water manager for the Nevada Water Authority, plans to pipe water from a huge aquifer that lies beneath the family ranch to thirsty Las Vegas. Meanwhile, Nell's twenty-one-year-old granddaughter Cassie intends to unearth those old secrets and repair the resentments that grew in their place.

With the exception of a few misguided years spent in New York City trying to make a fortune on Wall Street, she has lived her entire life west of the hundredth meridian. She writes about issues that threaten to destroy the essence of the west--and about passion, beauty, and love. Jana lives in Escalante, Utah.

- l***i (0)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaBag was NOT as listed. Listing said bag was in great condition and it was not. Exposure was turned up on listing photos to disguise discoloration/stains but even worse, the bag has an extremely awful foul smell. Completely unusable due to smell. Tried to contact seller and only got excuses, they did offer to refund half of the bag AND shipping and then ended up only refunding me like 30% instead of half of the order…. I would not recommend this seller unfortunately. I feel like I got duped…Laurel Burch Indigo Cats & Butterflies LARGE Tote, Cosmetic bag GUC (#304942416794)
