LITTLE GUN (A TRAGEDY OF THE AMERICAN WEST)

On the Oregon frontier, Swiss immigrant Mary Leonard stands trial for her life. Accused of killing her tyrannical husband, she does the unthinkable—teaching herself American law to mount her own defense. What begins as an act of survival becomes a radical confrontation with a legal system in a territory where women are denied the vote, yet bound to obey the law.
