Mustang Man: The Sacketts: A Novel

by

Mustang Man: The Sacketts: A Novel Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Filled with action, adventure, mystery, and historical detail, the Sackett saga is an unforgettable achievement by one of America's greatest storytellers. In Mustang Man, Louis L'Amour tells the tale of a man who lived by his own law-even if it meant being branded an outlaw.  Lost gold on the Santa Fe trail.

Nolan Sackett was running ahead of a posse when he stopped to help a wagon stuck on the plains.  But why was it stranded in the middle of nowhere with a beautiful-and murderous-young woman?  Nolan was trying to find out when he ran into Penelope Hume, another attractive lady.  She was the key to a cache of gold hidden in the mountains.  But to get the rightful heiress there first, Nolan would have to help her beat out jealous relations, paid assassins, and a killer without a conscience...  all maddened by gold fever.

From the Paperback edition.

Synopsis:

When the woman he rescues tries to kill him, first with a shotgun and then with poison, Mustang Man finally gets the messages that she is just no good. Reprint.

Synopsis:

Nolan Sackett's attempts to elude a posse hunting him for murder are complicated when he stops to rescue two women who appear to be in trouble.
