A picturesque romance of Utah of some [many] years ago, when Mormon authority ruled unquestioned in the land. Jane Withersteen becomes a rich woman at the death of her Mormon father. Although she is passionately devoted to her faith, she refuses to bend her shoulders to the yoke that is ready for her, and we are permitted to see the methods which the invisible hand of the Church employs to break her will. She has two good friends young Venters, a rider on her range, and Lassiter, who comes out of the North bearing a name that spells horror to all Mormon villages. A daring cattle thief enters into the tale, and a new love interest develops with the revelation of the identity of this "masked rider." -from dustjacket
