In the heart of the Great Depression, one cowboy's fight for justice crosses borders of race, class, and power.Colorado, 1935. Dust storms choke the land. Bank foreclosures strip families of farms that have been in their names for generations. The Morgan-Richter empire buys up everything in sight, while the poor scrape for survival. In the middle of it all rides Kumar Patel-a sharp-eyed, sharp-tongued East Indian cowboy whose skill with cattle is matched only by his unwillingness to bow to injustice.To Sam Longmore, an aging rancher barely holding onto his herd, Kumar is a rare kind of cowhand: loyal, skilled, and fearless. To the town's wealthy elite, he's a problem-too foreign, too outspoken, and far too clever for their liking. Alongside Leona Thundercloud, a Lakota woman with the mind of a scientist and the will of a warrior, Kumar begins to see just how deep the rot of greed runs in Blue River.From cattle drives through the high country to backroom deals in smoke-filled saloons, the struggle between rich and poor plays out in every corral, every street corner, every stolen acre of land. When Kumar's path collides with corrupt bankers, military enforcers, and the ghosts of empires past, he's forced to decide just how much he's willing to risk for those with no voice.Part Western, part political drama, and part literary journey through America's darker history, Colorado Comrade blends grit, wit, and social insight in a way that is as timely today as it was urgent then. With vivid prose, layered characters, and a storyline that moves between the dust-choked 1930s and haunting parallels to ancient Rome, it is a sweeping tale of survival, defiance, and the bonds that hold people together when everything else is being torn apart.For readers of historical fiction who want more than just the past-who want a story that questions, challenges, and refuses to look away-Colorado Comrade is a ride worth taking.
