Plague Wagons

For wagon boss Matt McLune it was the worst nightmare - a suspected outbreak of plague in three of the outfits trailing west to Colorado. Isolating them for the long haul to the nearest medical attention at Fort Butler fell to chief scout Hillpenny. But there were darker nightmares stalking the unfortunate travellers. A renegade bunch of Sioux braves was on the prowl for easy pickings. Then what lay behind the cargo of illicit rifles found in one of the wagons? Who were they destined to arm, when and where? Hillpenny had a whole lot more than sick folk and suspected plague to darken his days and threaten his nights on the lonely trek. All his skills with a gun would be needed as he faced dangerous foes on every side. His life hung by a thread.
