SOME DESPERADO
Shy gave the horse her heels, its forelegs buckled, and, before she had a notion what was happening, she and her saddle had bid each other a sad farewell.
She was given a flailing instant aloft to consider the situation. Not a good one at a brief assay, and the impending earth gave her no time for a longer. She did her best to roll with the fall - as she tried to do with most of her misfortunes - but the ground soon uncurled her, gave her a fair roughing up, and tossed her, flopping, into a patch of sun-shrivelled scrub.
Dust settled.

Les femmes de ce dernier tome avaient des personnalités très colorées, j'ai beaucoup aimé! Ce tome était plus ancré dans notre époque actuelle mais toutes les situations étaient très différentes. Je recommande!
