The fourth adventure in a Mountain Man series from Ash Lingam! When three buffalo hunters encroach on the mountain and valleys near Rusty and Angus’s cabins, they take potshots at Sioux hunters to run them off their buffalo herd. They stood all day killing one dumb beast after another until the valley floor was red with blood and carcasses. They took the food out of the mouths of the Indians that had lived there for ten thousand years. In the compound, the mountain men prepare for the coming winter. Ex-Captain Bill Forrester is still trying to wrap his mind around the loss of an arm. As he comes to grips with what happened, a new man emerges from the ashes, much like the Phoenix. Levi Beaver Johnson has proven he is as skilled as his fellow mountain men and gobbled up all he could learn from his peers. He was already a better pathfinder and sharpshooter than the rest. He and Bill settle down in their new home, Rusty Steel’s cabin. But what they had expected to be a quiet life in the wilderness turns out to be anything but tranquil.
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.
