To Pay a Debt, The Teacher’s Crooked Trail (Soft Cover) #9 Home on the Range Series

May, 1879

Anna Whitman is a twenty-four-year-old teacher in Altoona, Pennsylvania. She has raised and supported her younger sister, Flory, since the death of their parents ten years ago. While the sisters’ lives have never been easy, things are better now with Anna’s teaching job and Flory’s contribution of a few dollars more. Both of their lives are affected though when Anna is accused of breaking the morality clause of her teacher contract.

While Anna struggles with life-changing decisions, Flory continues to flit through each day with little concern for anyone but herself. She is an incorrigible flirt and has many suitors. Now one of her impetuous decisions will affect the sisters’ lives far beyond anything either of them considered.

With her job and her reputation in jeopardy, Anna is forced to make terrifying decisions. Will staying be an option? And if they leave, where will they go? Their only living relative lives on a ranch more than a thousand miles away.

Follow this young teacher’s crooked trail as she tries to do what is right and restore honor to her family name.
