A Ride On The Mullan Road

About the Book

Troubles along the Mullan Trail is a lusty novel about the early days in western Montana when many of the desperados, fleeing from the vigilantes of the Virginia City-Bannack area, moved up north to the gold diggings in the towns and camps along the Mullan Road. There, the criminals continued their terroristic ways: raping, robbing, and murdering the local miners and ranchers. That is until U.S. Marshal Lt. Steve Stallings was dispatched from Washington to restore law and order. When Steve learns that one of the raped women is someone that he loves, he vows to hunt the culprit down to his death. Great reading!
