Description
A dangerous journey lies ahead
For Lew Grand, life is a lonesome and weary road.
Having shot and killed twenty-two men who fancied themselves better gunslingers, his name is feared and admired across the western Frontier.
Wanted in most of the East and West, hes taken to wandering the South gambling and drinking and shooting any who dare challenge him.
One day, someone says a woman is looking for him Rana Harpley. He doesnt know her but he does know her father, the once infamous leader of a gang of outlaws, Ryland Harpley.
It was said though he gave up his ways, and pardoned for his crimes, settled down to start a ranch and a family.
But something happened. A bank in the local town was robbed and Ryland was framed for it. In the dead of night, he vanished and now Rana is looking for him.
She needs Lew to help her find her father; Rana believes Ryland has exiled himself to a place called Laughing Stream Valley.
But thats in Indian Territory. Worse, a war has been brewing up between the Sioux and Cheyennes Indians, and the U.S. Calvary.
Lew thinks theres no hope of getting there, let alone any hope in Ryland even being alive still.
Then again, perhaps hell allow Fate to once again push him northwards
However, travelling with Rana isnt going to be peaceful. With her are a team of notorious gunmen.
Theres Tony Floret real name Antonio Floretti came to America a murderer, having killed his way through Naples.
Theres the Hickey brothers, Con and Lee, a couple of outlaws whose infamy is on par with Lews.
And then theres Buster Kyle who might be the only honourable one of the bunch. All he wants is to make sure Rana is safe.
With no guarantee that Ranas father is even alive, what lies ahead now for Lee is a Danger Trail of the worst kind
An action-packed tale, Danger Trail is a thrilling, gun-toting Western.
