The Strawberry Mountain War

 

It was the tough old widow, Abby Chaney, who found Devon McCloud bushwhacked and left for dead on her Double A ranch. The old woman and her daughter had been fighting a losing battle against cattle baron Charles Sampson and timber man Egert Taylor who both wanted their land. On top of that, the Parker clan was cleaning out their cattle.

 

Odds for the Chaneys were considered slim to nothing. It was supposed to be an easy takeover, but the big men never counted on Devon McCloud buckling on his gun and stepping right in the middle of their plans. Sampson and Taylor had no intention of giving up, and Devon McCloud had never in his life backed down. War was about to break out in the Strawberry Mountains. The Chaney's odds had greatly improved, but were they good enough to win?

“Bring your badge, and hurry!”  So read the mysterious telegram Preston Yates received from his father.  Copper Creek was a town that didn’t welcome outsiders and was held firmly under the iron thumb of Noel Quinn and The Council.  Arriving in Copper Creek Preston finds his father missing after his escape from a Council hanging.

 

Going straight at Noel Quinn and his powerful friends Preston is determined to get to the bottom of the dirty business in Copper Creek.  At every turn he finds his way blocked and his life threatened, until an old partner steps forward bringing his friends to side with him.  The sands begin to shift against The Council until the night Preston is swept away by an angry lynch mob and disappears, an event that confuses even Noel Quinn.  Is the hard-nosed Marshal at the bottom of a mine shaft, or is he somewhere else with an ace up his sleeve?
