THE OCTOPUS-A STORY OF CALIFORNIA
�Just after passing Caraher's saloon, on the County Road that ran south from Bonneville, and that divided the Broderson ranch from that of Los Muertos, Presley was suddenly aware of the faint and prolonged blowing of a steam whistle that he knew must come from the railroad shops near the depot at Bonneville. In starting out from the ranch house that morning, he had forgotten his watch, and was now perplexed to know whether the whistle was blowing for twelve or for one o'clock. He hoped the former. Early that morning he had decided to make a long excursion through the neighbouring country, partly on foot and partly on his bicycle, and now noon was come already, and as yet he had hardly started. As he was leaving the house after breakfast, Mrs. Derrick had asked him to go for the mail at Bonneville, and he had not been able to refuse.

A woman who isn't her mother. Although Cheyenne has repeatedly asked for explanations, the people who could help aren't talking.

Things get even more complicated when her closest friend is attracted to the man Cheyenne has secretly loved for years.

Maybe letting him go would be a bigger mistake.
