The tenth adventure in a Mountain Man series from Ash Lingam! Like Rusty Steel before him, Capt. Will Forrester strikes out to search for his destiny after his best friend suddenly marries an Indian—she is a war chief. Levi Johnson was at his side one moment, and the next, he was gone, sending the West Point officer on a careening journey into the unknown. They had come to the Rocky Mountains together to become mountain men, but now Levi Johnson was living with the Crow Indians. All their plans vanished like the sun on a rainy day. Levi and his wife, Dahteste, encounter complications blending two distinct cultures—a Crow woman and a white man—but they try to resist and hold fast. Will their love last, or is it as fleeting as safety in the Rocky Mountains? Virgil Lovejoy and his employees, Clinch West and Bud Guns, meet Will Forrester in unusual circumstances. They travel to the most isolated valleys deep in the mountains, searching for their fortune in buffalo hides. Will the Indians allow them to leave with their scalps? Twists and turns in our mountain men’s journeys take all their lives on new paths as a new day is born, and the compound’s residents’ world is turned upside down, and chaos follows.
Author
Ash Lingam is an Amazon Best Selling Author. He has written over one hundred novels and short stories in the Western genre. He has published nine series about the Texas Rangers, US Marshals, and Bounty Hunters, and his new additions to the Frontier & Pioneer Western Fiction—the Mountain Men series. Ash was born on a ranch in the Midwestern United States. It was during a time when Westerns were magical both at the movies and on television. As a boy, he collected Indian arrowheads in the fields and rode his horse, Sugar, in the woods as he played cowboys and Indians. From age twelve, he hunted to put food on the family table when his grandpa, Pop, gave him his first double-barrel shotgun—at eight taught him how to trap in our ponds and the creeks at the end of our property. Growing up in the country with horses and guns made the transition to an author of the Old West an effortless journey. Some say Ash Lingam is the fastest writer in the West. Ash says; When inspiration hits me, from when I open my eyes in the morning until I fall asleep at night, I let my fingers dance across the keyboards, anxious to see what will happen next in the story in my mind’s eye.
