The Ranger And the Widow Woman (2011)
“Sam immediately came running in from the front yard, squealing that a man had come with horses. Charlie went out to greet him, and in spite of Violet’s attempts to keep him inside, Sam followed right on his heels.
Choosing to stay inside, Violet walked over to a living room window and watched her son trot out to where the two men were standing near the stock trailer.
Meeting Justine had been one thing, she thought, but the sheriff of Lincoln County was another matter entirely. For all she knew ...Rex might have asked the Amarillo police to put out a missing person bulletin on her and Sam. If so, Roy Pardee might have seen it, taken one look at her, and concluded she was Violet O’Dell. It was a long shot, but lawmen, especially one who had been in the business as long as Charlie’s father, had unusually keen eyes.
But would Rex actually go so far as to contact the police? she wondered for the thousandth time. Her father-in-law had sworn he would if she ever left with his grandson. And he was a man who always made good on his threats.MoreLess
