Frisco

Lillian Lewis doesn’t know anything about Frisco, only that they have posted a want ad for a teacher to instruct all grades. Lillian’s universe has just been shattered - her entire family tragically killed in a shanty fire. Alone at age 18, she’s been working to support herself at the Dalton Mill and Boarding House in the “Canyon of Gold" outside Marysvale, Utah. But the relentless and unwelcome pursuit of a dissolute ruffian miner has caused her to seek escape in Frisco, where she hopes to be hired as their new teacher. 

To say that Lillian jumped from the frying pan into the fire upon her arrival in Frisco is the grossest understatement of the century. 

Frisco is more corrupt and evil than Tombstone.  The townspeople hold any person of faith with contempt and vehement hatred. Lillian is distressed to learn of the disdain that the Frisco community has for her faith, so when she is hired to be Frisco’s newest teacher, she vows to keep what is most precious to her a secret. The students she has been hired to teach are incorrigible. Each of the former teachers in Frisco has run screaming from the schoolhouse after only a few days. 

On top of that, two men begin to vie for Lilian’s love - Charles Anderson, the single father of her worst nightmare in the classroom, and Sheriff Phillips, the gunslinger from Pioche, Nevada, who has been hired to clean up the town. Charles, with his crusty exterior and a violent sheriff, who is too good at his job. 

To make matters even more uncomfortable, Frisco just might be haunted. In the dark of the night, a mysterious lady in black walks the streets of Frisco.  Moreover, a disparate, gentle unexpected scent of lavender suddenly wafts through the air.

​

Whether the townspeople like it or not, ‘The Legend of Frisco’ is going to be rewritten when a sweet, benevolent girl of faith moves to town.
