Sinopse

Bertrand William Sinclair was a Canadian novelist known for a series of westerns set in the United States, and also for a series of novels set in his home province of British Columbia. He had disapproved of previous westerns as he felt the action portrayed was far different that the lives cowboys actually led. When he moved to Vancouver, the settings of his works changed. He tended to write about social causes, and worked in the timber industry prior to writing Big Timber. Later, before writing about the fishing industry, he worked as a commercial fisherman. He was also formerly married to author Bertha M. Brown, better known under her pen name, B. M. Bower. Contents:

On the Fourth of July in 1867, the Union Pacific Railroad announced plans to expand their line into the remote mountains of Dakota Territory. They chose a site near Crow Creek Crossing to be their headquarters and named it Cheyenne. Almost immediately, new residents began to arrive: dreamers and schemers, drifters and grifters, good folks and bad. The owners of Union Pacific knew there'd be problems. Between settling disputes, laying down tracks, and keeping the peace, they'd need a troubleshooter. A reliable man of steely resolve. A concealed weapon . . . 
 
 
 
His name is Derringer. Like the gun.

But then there are problems that are more complicated and it's Derringer's job to defuse them—before they ignite a full-blown bloodbath. 
 
 
 
Jesse Derringer is about to learn the true definition of trouble-shooting.

“All men are created equal … and nothing will ever be the same again in this country.” 
For 500 years, disease, persecution, forced removal, and outright slaughter of Native Americans affected millions of souls. Treating Native Americans as subhuman, "Indian savages," the US government forced countless indigenous humans who survived into poverty on reservations. 
Their ancestors in the Spirit World watched hundreds of treaties broken and continue to see their descendants suffer. So, they have raised a vast army led by gifted recruits and a Champion chosen from among the living to conquer an evil Lord and attempt to take down a callous, inhuman President. 
Dr. Jeromy Whitefeather Ph.D., a Professor of Native American Studies, is transported to the past, and he visits and trains in the Spirit World with a Great Chief named Chingachgook, who was thought to be the last of his Mohican people. He undergoes a dramatic change, gaining courage, strength, and the fiercest warrior fighting skills, and leads a legion of Spirit Warriors in a wild attempt to rewrite American history.

Who keeps threatening her, why can’t she find Jack, and will a dangerous flirtation be her undoing? Her answers plumb the depths of the human heart, including her own, exploring long-buried secrets, family lies, even city politics―all of which could cost the young detective her fledgling love . . . and perhaps even her life.
