" The book chronicles the story of Colton Bryant, who was killed at a young age in an accident while drilling for oil in Wyoming. Tragic story, lovely writing, a strong feeling of Wyoming and the west, and a subtle treatment of the issue of oil rig safety. The author states she took some liberty with Colton's story, emphasizing certain things and under-emphasizing others. I wish I knew more about those liberties and about Colton the real person. I grew to love Colton and his family and friends, perhaps particularly his best friend, Jake. "
