Whiskey When We're Dry

In 1885 seventeen-year-old Jessilyn finds herself orphaned on her family's homestead. She cuts her hair, saddles her mare, and sets off. Her goal? To find her gun-slinging brother. A sharpshooter herself, Jess's quest lands her in the employ of the territory's governor, whose militia is also hunting Noah - dead or alive. Jess must out-manoeuvre whose who underestimate her. Told in Jess's voice, the story brims with Western action, but its approach is modern and nuanced, touching on issues from gender and sexuality to family and identity.
