The Whip by Karen Kondazian

Historical Fiction

Wow!  Just Wow!  What a great piece of history made all the more readable, intriguing and inspiring by Kondazian.  Kondazian created a fictional background which gave heart and soul to the mysterious character of Charley Parkhurst.  Regardless of the truth of her past, she was still a person of remarkable strength in the times of the Wild West. Short chapters make this a quick read.

Quotes:  "Life's gonna do that to you missy.  Gonna upset your wagon, not just once but many times.  And you got to choose who's sitting next to you.  Someone you can trust...or not"

"Friendship, true friendship is a curious dance.  Why does one recognize and embrace one soul and yet not another.  What is that? That something unspoken.  Perhaps it is a long ago remembrance of another time, another place, those same familiar eyes shining out.  Always we are searching for those recognizable eyes...so that we might at last be recognized ourselves."
