The Cadence of Grass

In "The Cadence of Grass," Sunny Jim Whitelaw's death sets off a dramatic struggle for control over his estate, as his will mandates that his daughter, Evelyn, reconcile with her estranged husband, Paul, before anyone inherits. Evelyn, fiercely connected to her land and the disappearing West, faces off against the suave, unscrupulous Paul, leading to a compelling narrative woven with themes of blood, money, and vengeance in the backdrop of Montana cattle country. Renowned author Thomas McGuane delivers a rich exploration of Western mythology with his signature prose, capturing the complexities of human relationships and ambition.
