Louis LโAmour takes William Tell Sackett on a treacherous passage from the Arizona goldfields to the booming town of Los Angeles.
Tell Sackett was no ladiesโ man, but he could spot trouble easily enough. And Dorinda Robiseau was the kind of trouble he wanted to avoid at any timeโeven more so when he had thirty pounds of gold in his saddlebags and a long way to travel. But when she begged him for safe passage to Los Angeles, Sackett reluctantly agreed. Now heโs on a perilous journey through the most brutal desert on the continent, traveling with a companion he doesnโt trust . . . and headed for a confrontation with a deadly gunman who also bears the name of Sackett.
