"The Ryans won't be found in any history books--but their lives, conducted on the fringes of polite society, were desperate and uncompromising in the face of limited options. The Beaten Territory finds Annie Ryan running a second-rate brothel in 1890s Denver. When her young niece arrives, she is swept up in a world of booze, drugs and vice. Pearl becomes a pawn of underworld tensions between her aunt, a corrupt cop, and a successful and clever woman addicted to laudanum. The resulting tragedy attested that justice was not always served as Denver struggled to shed its rough and ready image."--Goodreads.com.
