About This Book

A rugged frontier narrative follows Wild Nat, an experienced trapper driven by a personal vendetta, who takes a young companion, Wayne Kent, into the mountain woods after an emigrant-train disaster leaves an orphaned woman missing. The pair navigate streams, ravines, and camps while hunting, tracking, and engaging in dangerous encounters with Indian parties. Action sequences alternate with scenes of survival and camp life as the men pursue rescuing the missing woman, and the story explores themes of revenge, companionship, and the isolation and hazards of life in the wilderness.
