Seventeen-year-old Jessa Campbell lives on her family's homestead, the Shinnery, in 1890s Texas, surrounded by acres of shin oaks on the rolling plains. Without any explanation, her father sends her away to settle a family debt. Although Jessa is better at judging cattle than men, she gets entangled with a bad one. Everything falls apart when she puts her trust in Will Keyes. When Jessa returns home to the Shinnery, pregnant and alone, her father goes on a mission of frontier justice, with devastating consequences. In the aftermath, Jessa fights for her claim to the family farm and for a life of independence for herself and her sisters. The Shinnery is a story of coming-of-age, betrayal, and revenge, inspired by the author's family history and a trial that shook the region.
