Kettle of Tears
Description
When Nate Tallhelm left his homestead to visit his uncle's place hard by the eastern slopes of the continental divide in 1870, he had no idea of the adventures-and dangers-that lay ahead.
His mission to rescue his bushwhacked cousin would bring him to the Kettle of Tears, one of most awe-inspiring and forbidding landscapes he'd ever seen. Respected and revered by the Nez Perce, it was also home to a citadel-like outpost that commanded the region from its high perch-the Crow's Nest, home to a motley crew of mostly friendly characters making their way best they could in a hard environment. Here, with the help of his Indian friends, Nate would have to use all the skills he possessed to survive gunplay, wild animals, and even all-out war with villains more evil than any he could have imagined. It would also lead him to find a woman he could spend the rest of his life with back on that spread up in the Yellowstone.
