A father and son vanish. A legend is born. An eight-year-old boy manages to survive the murder of his father in the winter desert and under the mentorship of an Apache scout and curmudgeon rancher returns to extract revenge. On February 1, 1896, Albert Fountain—prominent attorney, lawmaker, and fearless militia leader—set out across the desolate Tularosa Basin with his eight-year-old son, Henry. Despite threats against his life, Albert was determined to see justice served, returning home after securing indictments against powerful cattle thieves. His wife, Mariana, believing no one would harm a man traveling with a child, had urged him to take Henry along. Before they departed, she entrusted Henry with a small ivory horsehead fob—a symbol of his promise to protect his father. They never made it home. Their wagon was found abandoned in the vast desert, the horses missing, and a patch of blood-soaked sand glistening in the sun. Though their bodies were never recovered, whispers of vengeance and survival grew into legend—some say Henry lived to avenge his father’s murder. Others claim the truth was swallowed by the shifting desert winds. Rich in historical detail, Mariana’s Knight brings to life a true unsolved mystery of the American Southwest—a tale of tragedy, resilience, and the undying bond between a mother and her son.

Held captive by the Apache, a young girldiscovers the courage to survive... and the strength to choose her own path. In the rugged borderlands of northern Sonora and southern Arizona, twelve-year-old Trinidad Verdín’s life is forever changed when a brutal Apache raid claims her family and leaves her a captive of the legendary Geronimo. Taken by the Naiche-Geronimo band, Trinidad is thrust into a world of survival, resilience, and unexpected bonds. Under the supervision of Geronimo and his wife, She-gha, Trinidad discovers a new sense of belonging. She forms a surprising friendship with Garditha, a ten-year-old Apache boy, as they teach each other their languages and skills. Together, they navigate the perils of life on the run—from scalp hunters to relentless soldiers—each day a fight to stay alive. But when a surprise attack by Mexican vaqueros throws Trinidad into chaos, she faces an impossible decision. She can follow Geronimo and remain with the Apache who have become her family or risk everything by running toward the vaqueros who might mistake her for an enemy. Award-winning author W. Michael Farmer masterfully blends riveting historical detail with unforgettable characters to bring to life the courage, resilience, and humanity of a young girl caught between two competing cultures. Trini! Come! is a powerful tale of survival, identity, and the strength it takes to find one’s place in an unforgiving world.
