Mustang Man

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.
