One for the Blackbird, One for the Crow

 Fiction by Olivia Hawker


On a lonely prairie out west in the late nineteenth century, there are only two houses anywhere near each other, and a fight between the two homesteaders leaves one man dead and the other in jail. The two women are left alone with their children to fend for themselves through the winter.

This story is about how the two families learn to put differences aside and help each other. Apparently it is loosely based on some of the author’s own family history.
