JOHNSTONE COUNTRY. WHERE YOU STAKE A CLAIM AND FIGHT TO KEEP IT.
In a wild and woolly town built around goldmines, a former army scout seeks his fortune only to run afoul of dangerous men desperate to steal it in this new series from legendary Western authors William W. and J.A. Johnstone.
In 1862, gold was discovered in a remote area of the Montana mountains. Prospectors far and wide invaded the territory, tearing up the earth in search of the precious metal. Following their trail were the saloonkeepers, hoteliers, blacksmiths, and other businessmen looking to sell wares and services to the miners. Soon, tents became wooden buildings, and the town of Bannack was established near Grasshopper Creek. Eventually boasting a population of ten thousand, it was a place where a man was free to strike it rich or die trying.
After too many years serving the U.S. Army, former scout Zach McKenna found his own vein of gold outside Bannack and built himself a home there. But not everyone in town is willing to earn a wage or dig up gold rocks-not when they can simply take it from the barrel of a gun. And when these thieving outlaws target McKenna's claim, they encounter a merciless man willing to shed blood in the most violent ways imaginable . . .
