About Widow's Flame
GALWAY CITY, 1898. BLAIR RYAN IS LOST.
Three years ago, her husband, Thomas, was murdered by an outlaw gang in America. Since then, she’s become resentful of life in general and a drunk with no purpose.
The sheriff has done nothing to find Thomas’ murderer and Blair wants them to pay. When she gets news of a fighter dubbed “The American Outlaw” in a nearby town, she enlists his help in her campaign of revenge.
Together, they go to America to track down the men that murdered her husband.
Blair doesn’t trust her companion, Colin McCarthy, but she needs him and this outweighs her concern.
There’s a rage inside Blair and killing these men may mean sacrificing her own humanity.
Can Blair get justice for her husband’s murder?
Will her sanity be the price to pay?
Is she capable of forgiveness?
