Fort Buzzard

They were innocent men, slaughtered in the Rockies. A party of land surveyors who met their grisly fate at the hands of the Crow Indians-or so it seems. Some folks think the story is a lie. And now it's up to US Army Lieutenant Ron Stanton to figure out what really happened up there in those desolate, blood-soaked mountains. As his guides, Preacher and Jamie McCallister agree to retrace the footsteps of the doomed party-come hell or high water-but first they'll have to pass through a particularly nasty piece of purgatory known as Fort Buzzard . . .

Fort Buzzard-officially Gullickson's Fort-earned its nefarious nickname because of the human vultures it attracts. Namely the brutes and brawlers hired by Gullickson to protect his interests. When a nearby trading post is suddenly attacked-and two young women carried off by Indians-Preacher and McCallister smell a rat. The Crows swear they're not responsible for the attack, the abduction, or the mountain party massacre. Preacher and McCallister believe them-but proving it won't be easy. This road to justice only leads to more dead ends-and the biggest, bloodiest showdown in Rocky Mountain history . . .
