    About this ebook

    The Silent Call explores the story of a man, half English-aristocrat and half-Indian, who lives on the American border without anyone knowing his ancestry. He acts like a sheriff, operates a ranch, and is in love with an Indian orphan girl. His father's death summons him back to England, to his bothersome wife. This interesting story follows several significant events that occur in his life that may or may not turn out well for him.
