What was on the minds of the men of Highwater was a woman: Elizabeth Walker. A widow in debt to the IRS after her husband died, leaving her a large ranch and no money to pay estate taxes. She sold most of her cattle, leased most of her land to other ranchers, and is running for the office of Justice of the Peace, because she desperately needed the job. The other elected officials, all men, sympathize with Elizabeth's position, but are uneasy with the idea of a women JP who might have to mess around with dead bodies. In their opinion, looking at dead bodies is no job for a woman. The only public official who knows that Elizabeth can handle anything, dead or alive, that comes along is Sheriff Jim Hayworth, a widower and best friend of her deceased husband. In these four interconnected stories, even Jim is surprised at how far Elizabeth Walker will go to uncover murderers hiding among the peaceful residents of Highwater.
