Book
Conagher
First published 1969
Conn Conagher earns his living in the open cattle country, moving between hard ranch work and the dangers that come with rustlers and isolated range. Evie Teale, widowed and responsible for keeping a remote homestead together, faces a different kind of struggle as loneliness and economic uncertainty threaten the life she is trying to preserve.
Their paths gradually converge across a landscape in which distance magnifies both danger and human need. The novel balances frontier action with a quieter story of endurance, showing how cattle work, homesteading and long periods of isolation shape people who are trying to create permanence in a country still defined by movement.
