Trace Truejay never backed away from aggressive trappers, fighting everyone who crossed him with fists, knives, or rifles, until they learned to avoid him and his deadly accurate Winchester. His name and deeds became legendary and would be remembered for generations to come. Several times, he saved trappers who were stranded by Indian attacks and along the Rockies he came to be known by his reputation for strong horses, a dead shot with a rifle, and his choice to leave trapping and begin a cattle ranch. A lone man starting to raise cattle faces many challenges and Truejay moved ahead on his own initiative, selling off his steers, keeping his Angus heifers to build the herd, and hunting and growing his own food.
The 1860s in Colorado presented many changes with settlers arriving from the east, gold miners digging up stream beds, Indian wars, and the military setting up forts. What Truejay hadn't bargained for was the arrival of his new neighbor, Colonel Wally Turnbull. Not happy with simply settling his own land, Turnbull was determined to take over the entire territory--threatening settlers, Indians, and anyone who happened to cross the path of his nasty crew of cowboys.
Set for the fight of his life, Trace reverts to his mountain man days as he poses as an Indian to defend himself, his ranch, and his neighbors. A Savage Wolf, cut from the pack, is an unpredictable foe-he'll stop at nothing to save that which he values most.
