Travels of Quinn
 |
| At Amazon |
Abandoned by her mother, Quinn is raised into a life of
crime by her father and the gypsy con artists known as Irish American
Travelers.
Though Quinn can con
with the best of them, she is conflicted about her crimes. Travelers leave
school by the fifth or sixth grade and many resent that Quinn has educated
herself with books. Erroneously, they believe she’s a snob, like her beautiful,
educated mother, who they despised.
Arrested and jailed for theft, Quinn pays restitution by
working on a horse farm. Unfamiliar with horses, her love for them surprises
her. They make her hope for a better world. But the farm’s owner is brutally
murdered and Quinn becomes the prime suspect.
On the run, Quinn
uses every scam and con she knows to save herself. Can she find the real killer
before she’s imprisoned for life or murdered because she knows too much? A mystery-thriller of deceit, murder, greed
and hope, by multiple award-winning author, Sasscer Hill.
