Book description
Travelling north from New Mexico, Chad Miller happens upon the
small Colorado township of Hooper, where Perdi Bridge is vainly trying
to protect her family and cattle business from Brig Porton. A one-time
army commander and now the powerful owner of High Smoke, Porton is
intent on wresting the Bridges' property from them, taking their very
lives if necessary.
From the outset Chad finds himself involved with the Bridges and
he knows he cannot ride on and leave a family who has real need of his
skill with fists and gun power. With the odds against him, can Chad
shape up a fighting force before Porton and his mercenaries overwhelm
them all?
