It is 1830, & the Berrybender family - rich, aristocratic, English, & fiercely out of place - is on its way up the Missouri River to see the American West as it begins to open up. Lord & Lady Berrybender have abandoned their palatial home in England to explore the frontier & to broaden the horizons of their children, who include Tasmin, a budding young woman of grit, beauty, & determination, her vivacious & difficult sister, & her brother. As they journey by rough stages up the Missouri River, they meet with all the dangers, difficulties, temptations, & awesome natural scenery of the untamed West. At the very core of the story is Tasmin’s fast-developing relationship with Jim Snow, frontiersman, ferocious Indian fighter, & part-time preacher. Known up & down the Missouri as “the Sin Killer,” he’s the handsome, silent Westerner who eventually captures her heart.

Against the immense backdrop of the American West, Larry McMurtry tracks this engaging family as they make their way up the great river, surviving attacks, discomfort, savage weather, & natural disaster. Sin Killer is an adventure story full of incident, & suspense, as well as a charming love story between a headstrong & aristocratic young Englishwoman & the stubborn, shy, & very American Jim Snow. As big as the West itself, this is the kind of story that only Larry McMurtry can write.
