"Independence, Missouri, 1865. Clay Moran fought hard in the Civil War. Now that Robert E. Lee has surrendered, Clay is free to head west. Problem is, the wagon train has left Independence already---and Clay has to go it alone. Luckily, the army let him keep his horse. But when a couple of bushwhackers steal that horse and all his money, he's left high and dry. If clay hopes to catch up with the wagon train, he'll have to rely on his wits. His guts. And every skill he learned in the war. Along the way, he'll have to do things a man should never have to do -- just to survive."--Back cover.
