Summary: "Jean of the Lazy A" by B. M. Bower is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story introduces readers to the Lazy A ranch, a seemingly peaceful and idyllic setting that is soon disrupted by tragedy. The central character, Jean, is a spirited sixteen-year-old girl who has returned home from school and is quickly thrust into turmoil when the ranch's tranquility is shattered by a murder linked to her father's ranching operations. The opening of the novel sets a picturesque scene of ranch life before quickly transitioning to a shocking discovery. Jean's ordinary day is interrupted when she goes into the house to find a dead man on the kitchen floor, stirring a complex web of emotions and consequences tied to familial bonds and community relationships. As Lite Avery, a close friend of Jean, grapples with the ensuing chaos and mystery of the murder, it becomes clear that the story will explore themes of innocence, loyalty, and the challenges of growing up amid adversity. This gripping introduction promises a tale rich in character development and dramatic tension that will appeal to readers interested in Western Americana and coming-of-age stories.
