The first novel in the Landscapes of a Montana Heart series
A novel set in Yellowstone country during the great Montana fires of 2000, Ballad of the Drover, is the story of an Australian movie star searching for his biological father—a real American cowboy. Will a native Montanan woman guide him in his journey? How does an ancient Irish poem about St. Patrick unite two lost souls who meet in a rural Montana bar at the crossroads of their lives? What clues do a Nelson Story 1866 cattle drive from Texas to a gold camp in Montana Territory and a Crow Indian legend about a woman named Evening Star hold for the man from Down Under?
