I wondered about this book until I got into it & then I found it hard to put down!
Tomas & Isabella are illegal entrants into the USA. They crossed the Rio Grande river one night. In doing so they lost contact with her grandfather. They take shelter under a bush & laterToms notices a hole cut in the fence. They crawl through & notice lights from a house. On knocking they are met by a man with a gun, but, his wife Emma invites them in as Isabella is giving birth, to a healthy boy. Mark Smith is furious with Emma & the “illegals” as he insisted on calling them. There is trouble on his ranch & via a friend of Emma’s we meet up again wit the 4 Bros. There is heaps going on in this convoluted story, but a very good read.
