About this ebook

Journey with Kathleen as she travels west in hopes of finding a better future than living on the streets of New York City. A chance encounter and a job offer bring her to the booming silver mining town of Calico, California.

Her job entails cleaning in a "boarding house" where the girls befriend her, and the madam protects her. Afternoons and evening she is free to roam around town where she meets colorful characters typical of the Old West: some pleasant, some not.

From witnessing a shooting in a saloon, to fighting a fire that threatens to destroy the town, to solving a murder, every day is an adventure for Kathleen in this real, wild western town of the 1880s.
