About
Eight years after the publication of Nevada Cain Ranch arrives Jon Swank’s new novel, Nevada Maso Ranch. Set on a horse ranch in the Washoe Valley of Northern Nevada, comes another story of trust and love overcoming the hardships of returning veterans from the Middle East wars.
Jordy Jensen leaves active duty from his last assignment serving as an Air Force nurse at the Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany. Mason Couper left active duty with the Marines two years before Jordy.

Mason lives with his grandpa where they run a horse ranch in the valley. Both young men, along with a few other veteran friends, have an assortment of emotional issues to deal with while trying to fit back into civilian life.
The budding relationship between Jordy and Mason is easy to follow, but the plot to murder Jordy is one that will leave you guessing until the very end. Follow the main characters from the foothills between Carson City and Reno, to the abandoned gold mines surrounding Virginia City and all the way to the top of Slide Mountain as they find each other regardless of the odds placed against them.
