Set in the later part of the Wild West era (they have telephones), the story is really more about Henry de Spain than it is of Nan of Music Mountain. But would you read a book called Henry of Sleepy Cat? Henry works for the railroad, more as a security agent. His main trouble is with the Morgan clan of Morgan's Gap, ruled over by the patriarch, Duke Morgan. Duke's got a niece, Nan (of guess where), and she and Henry secretly fall in love. Nan has a jealous cousin, Gale, who wants to marry her whether she likes it or not. She doesn't like it, BTW. There's also the mustache-twirling type villain of Sassoon, who's out for Henry's blood. For further complications there's the addition that Nan's people may have been responsible for the unsolved murder of Henry's father. In the end, as to be expected, all the bad guys get theirs and Henry and Nan get each other.
