Book #4 MYSTERIOUS WAYS Frontier Fiction Series
1872 Colorado Territory & 2010 Denver
The first three books of the Mysterious Ways series (set in 19th-Century Colorado Territory) followed the adventures of Charlie Smith as he came of age, sought—and sometimes fought for—his fortune, and learned who to trust and who not to trust. Now, The Crimson River fast forwards to 21st-Century Denver, with Charlie Smith’s descendant as a main character, and with flashbacks to the late 19th Century. The plot involves a hunt for buried treasure based on clues found in Charlie’s diary. Beloved characters from the first three books enter the picture again. They struggle against greedy antagonists and their own conflicted motives. The reader is kept guessing with plot twists that provide suspense and intrigue as well as romance and inspiration.
Donna enjoys golfing, boating, exploring colorful Colorado with her husband, Don, and conveying God’s love through her novels.

REVIEWS:
“Donna Westover does her usual great job of telling a spellbinding tale. I was surprised the story went back and forth between the present and the 19th-Century Colorado Territory…a marvelous way to tell the story. The inclusion of historically accurate events adds to the drama. The trip to Texas with the mesquite thorn poisoning and then to Missouri with the inclusion of the Small-Pox story line was well told and frighteningly realistic. I love the way Donna’s stories include the Almighty’s activity in everyday life.” − Jimmie A. Kepler
