this is definitely a fun western about powerful, independent women ahead of their time, but it sure does leave a lot to be desired.

a western set in 1905’s kansas city, ruby is a woman with a dubious past trying to keep on the straight and narrow… for the most part. when her ex-friend, ex-partner comes back with a mission, she drops everything to commit a worthy crime.

while i enjoyed a feminist take on a western, the plot was a bit confusing at times in terms of pacing. this isn’t a complete tale, but rather the first of a series yet to come. the ending was lackluster.

thank you to netgalley and the publisher for an arc in exchange for an honest review!
