   Summary

   When a broken engagement sends Ellie Durant all the way from her comfortable home in Chicago to a Pullman Coach in Hell on Wheels, her only thought is how to rebuild her reputation so she can return to society and escape the Nebraska wilderness. As spring turns to summer, she begins to learn more about the strange place she’s found herself in and about the motley assortment of people who work on her father’s railroad. But Hell on Wheels is, by its very nature, a transitory place and no one who passes through can truly stay. Soon, Ellie will have to decide what path to take away from the makeshift town and commit to walking it.
