About this audiobook
Colorado-Territorium, 1873. Caleb Mercer züchtet Schafe in den Wet Mountains, gemeinsam mit seiner Frau Bea, die seit elf Jahren mit ihm verheiratet ist und nie schwanger wurde. Als die Masern sie im April dahinraffen, begräbt Caleb sie allein – und findet dann das verschlossene Kontobuch in ihrer Truhe. Darin: neun Jahre Briefe an einen Bundesmarshal namens Hollis Ward, die eine Anklage gegen einen Viehbaron vorbereiten, der gestohlenes Vieh durch das Territorium schleust. Caleb reitet mit den Briefen nach Denver und trifft Ward persönlich. Ward ist vierzig, still und seit neun Jahren in Bea verliebt, ohne je ihr Gesicht gesehen zu haben. Caleb sagt es ihm nicht. Dann brechen die beiden gemeinsam ins Wet Mountain Valley auf, um Beas Fall zu beenden, und Caleb begreift langsam, dass Ward nicht um die Frau trauert, die er nie getroffen hat. Ward trauert um den Mann, in den er sich durch die Post verliebt hat. Ein düsterer historischer MM-Western-Thriller über Briefe – und den Mann, der sie hätte unterschreiben sollen.
