Territory
Author: Emma Bull
 
Tombstone, Arizona, in 1881. Veins of silver run like ley lines under the earth, a network of power that belongs to anyone who knows how to claim and defend it. Power by which men and women can bend others to their will.
Jesse Fox left his Eastern college education to travel west, where he's made some odd friends, like the physician Chow Lung, who insists Jesse has a talent for magic, something Jesse doesn' want to believe. In Tombstone, he meets the tubercular Doc Holliday - and attracts the sorcerous attention of Wyatt Earp.
Mildred Benjamin is a young widow making her living as a typesetter, and - unbeknownst to the other ladies of Tombstone - selling tales of Western derring-do to the magazines back east. Like Jesse, Mildred has episodes of seeing things that can't possibly be there.
When a failed holdup leaves tow dead, Tombstone explodes with speculation about who attempted the robbery. The truth could destory Earp's plan for wealth and glory...
