**Role:** supporting

**Also known as:** Gracey, poor Gracey

**First appearance:** 0001-robbery-under-arms

## Snapshot

The gentle girl Dick Marston truly loves, whose dropped note exposes his double-dealing and ignites Kate's terrifying fury.

## Who they are

Gracey Storefield is the quiet, decent love Dick Marston keeps hidden behind his reckless flirtations, and the letter she writes him becomes the spark that turns Kate into a vengeful enemy. She represents the honest life Dick might have had, a world of storekeepers and settled families that his choices place further out of reach with every ride. Her existence in the story measures the cost of Dick's duplicity, not through her own actions but through the havoc his feelings for her cause in others.
