A Woman Called Sage

Author: DiAnn Mills
Publisher: Zondervan
Scoring: Five Star

While women tended their babies, Sage Morrow tracked down outlaws. She was not always like that, but revenge was the fuel for her determination. She is now on the trail of the notorious McCaw brothers. She succeeded in bringing the ring leader to US Marshall Parker Timmons. She just needed to wait for her pay packet to be delivered, but has she walked into a trap? Further complication arise when two boys are kidnapped which forced her to work with Parker. On a dangerous mission, the two gallop off to the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. Will Sage's Indian Ute ways in the wild and Parker’s war experience keep them alive?


Mills skilfully shows the culture and prejudice surrounding Native Americans in that era. What I liked most about the book was the flawless characterisation of Sage. Strong and courageous yet in her private moments she had her wounds and insecurities. In some areas I thought the plot was a little slow. I also admired the non physical affection displayed in the book which was appropriate for the period it was written. The take away value was forgiveness.

My verdict: An edgy western style book with murder, suspense and romance. You will love it.
