The McHenry Inheritance

On a fly-fishing vacation in California’s High Sierra, San Francisco stockbroker Quill Gordon finds more than he bargained for. A menacing “citizen militia,” led by a former radio talk show host, has taken over an alpine meadow and is stockpiling far more guns than it needs for target practice. Ellen McHenry, a rancher’s daughter whose straightforward charms Gordon finds hard to resist, is in serious legal trouble as a trial over a contested will tears her family apart and threatens her father’s legacy. When these combustible factors lead to murder in cold blood and broad daylight, Ellen becomes a prime suspect, the militia ramps up its suspicious activities, and Gordon is drawn deeper into the case — whether he wants to be or not.
