What if protecting another man's honor costs you your name, your country, and the woman you love?
Captain James Wynnegate has the trust of his friends and a place in English society. Then he takes the blame for another man's wrong. His cousin Henry, Earl of Kerhill, depends on his silence, while Diana's happiness is tied to the secret he agrees to keep.
James leaves England for the Wyoming range, where nobody knows his past. There he meets Nat-U-Ritch, a young Ute woman whose courage and loyalty bind her life to his. From drawing rooms to open ranch country, The Squaw Man asks what honor costs—and who must bear that cost.

From the 15-minute summary · Key idea 1
A gentleman carries another man's guilt
The story opens in the upper circles of England. Its hero is Captain James Wynnegate, an officer and a gentleman, trusted by his friends and admired for his character. Among those close to him is his cousin Henry, the Earl of Kerhill, a man of rank and standing.
Trouble comes when money entrusted to the care of a charity is found to be missing. A scandal threatens, and someone must answer for it. James could clear himself, but only by exposing a person whose ruin would hurt others he cares about.
