Publishing and Net Galley shared an ebook of this story with me (thank
you). It's just been published and you can get a copy now at your local
bookstore.
Wolf
Riker is a rancher. He's a cattleman who earned the nickname "Range
Wolf". He's also rough and tough, mean and relentless, and kind in some
ways. He's definitely the leader of his pack of cowboys and he'll do
whatever he needs to remind them of that. He intends to move his cattle
fast and get to the market in Kansas for a better price. Indians,
comancheros, floods, and mutiny won't stop him.
Christopher
Guthrie meets him right after Indians have attacked the stage he was
riding on. He's a book learned young man who doesn't even have any
calluses on his hands. But he and his female fellow passenger have no
choice except to join the cattle drive. They won't reach their
destination on foot with no food, water or horses. And his fellow
passenger was injured in the fight. He couldn't be more different from
Wolf. And, yet, there were some similarities between them.
This
story is full of action, lots of danger within camp and without, and
there are beeves everywhere. If you enjoy a good cowboy story with
no-nonsense characters, this a great read for you. I enjoyed it.
Happy reading.
