Spanning the Scottish Highlands, Gilded Age New York, and the contested lands of New Mexico, Land Shadows traces the arc of a man caught in a web of ambition, betrayal, and the seductive promise of ownership. New York and New Mexico are bound by an umbilical cord of fraud - tightened by political greed, legal manipulation, and the unchecked power of the Gilded Age. Murdoch McNeil rises through the system, only to find that what he gains in land, he may pay for in blood.
Young attorney Murdoch McNeil held the pen — but couldn’t sign. At first. Then it all came rushing back: his family’s stolen land in Scotland, the voyage that killed them, the orphan asylum on Randall’s Island. But he signed anyway — his father’s voice echoing in his mind: “Do anything you have to do to get and keep land.”
