A Western Adventure of Love and Vengeance

De: Derek Catron

They survived war, captivity, and the unforgiving frontier. Now peace may be the most dangerous test of all.

At last, Josey and Annabelle Angel have carved out a life worth fighting for: a thriving ranch in Montana Territory, a newborn daughter, and the fragile hope of a future untouched by violence. But the Bozeman Trail is soaked in too much blood for peace to come easily.

When a series of brutal murders threatens to shatter treaty negotiations, the army blames Crazy Horse, the Lakota warrior who once held Annabelle captive. Josey knows better—and is ordered to find Crazy Horse before war ignites again. But “the Angel of Death” has many enemies, and not all of them are Sioux.

Atticus Grieve, a Southern gunman burning with vengeance, hunts Josey with a chilling determination. And in the booming gold-rush towns, a respected surgeon with monstrous ideas—and a mercenary army to enforce them—is conducting grisly experiments that endanger settlers and Lakota alike.

As Josey rides into the heart of danger, Annabelle faces threats of her own: a charismatic widow whose intentions are unclear, a scientist whose “research” defies all decency, and a frontier community where loyalties shift like wind-blown dust.

When all forces converge in a violent showdown on the final days of the Bozeman Trail, Josey and Annabelle must confront their deepest truths. To save their family—and prevent a new war—they’ll need more than their fast rifles and hard-won courage. They’ll need to decide who they are in a land that forces every soul to choose between vengeance … and grace.

This third book in a series Kirkus Reviews calls “a timeless tale of love and adventure on the American frontier” is perfect for fans of historical adventure, frontier drama, and deeply human stories set amid the clash of cultures on the American West.
