Book Description
Hank James is trying to make his fortune panning gold but it isn’t exactly working that way. However, with the help of an “inside source” he does well betting on a prize fight.
With his winnings Hank invests in a new business hauling freight to build the new railroad. With luck, hard work and good help he does well. Then his “inside source” from the days of the prize fight expects help when the BC Provincial Police face off against the North West Mounted Police.
While the police forces fight each other who is watching the criminals? If Hank is identified as helping the law, will they try to make him pay for his interference? And while the police forces are fighting each other and ignoring the thieves steeling Hank’s horses, how can he be expected to keep his freight business working?
And while all the thievery, shooting, killing, arrests and trials are going on, what happened to Hank’s new girl?
