Description
He went west to build a life. Now he must return to face the past.
Virgil Rawlins has carved a future from the frontier-but some journeys can't be left unfinished.
With Sarah and their family beside him, Rawlins journeys eastward, traveling by riverboat and rail across a nation still scarred by the American Civil War. He seeks one thing: a final farewell at the graves of his family. For Sarah, the journey carries its own weight-the hope of reconciliation with the wealthy family she left behind.
But the road home is anything but safe. On the waters of the Yellowstone and Missouri Rivers, river pirates stalk the currents. Along the rails from Council Bluffs to St. Louis, outlaws see opportunity in every mile of track. And because a man with his past doesn't travel unnoticed, wherever danger rises Rawlins must meet it.
Forged in war and hardened on the frontier, Rawlins discovers he has become something more than a survivor-like his friend Bill Hickock, he's become a man with a reputation. The kind of man others look to when violence comes for them. Now, he must walk a narrow line between justice and survival...between the man he was and the man he's striving to become.
Rawlins, Last Ride to Montana is the gripping third book in the Rawlins Saga-where past and present collide in a journey filled with danger, redemption, and the unbreakable bonds of family. Perfect for readers who enjoy the heart of a pioneer family and the high-stakes action of a classic Western adventure.
