About this audiobook

Matt Bardoul was a good man to have as a friend and a bad one to make trouble with. He was also a single-minded drifter-until he met his match in an outspoken beauty named Jacquine Coyle. She was headed into the Bighorn Mountains with her father and an expedition in search of gold. After Matt signs on to join them, he discovers that there is a group of outlaws in the party-gunfighters and thieves that Matt wouldn't trust for a minute. At first it's unclear what they are planning, but before long Matt realizes that he's the only man standing between innocent people and a brutal conspiracy of greed, lust, and cold-blooded murder.

    Typical western. There are good guys and bad guys. There are Indians. It's a wagon train taking supplies. Lots of shooting. Much of the action in this one occurs in the Big Horn Mountains. All's well that ends well. I'm not a fan of the genre, but at least L'Amour is readable and reads quickly, making it less painful to someone who doesn't like the genre.

    A good selection of characters who performed according to type BUT!! The narrators voice,words and emphasis removed the setting from 1870 to modernity. Other yarns by the Author brought me back to the time depicted. Mmm! Perhaps I should have given it 4****.

    Excellent work, just a cut above most of his pulp westerns

    Matt Bardoul is headed to the Black Hills, part of a large, heavy-loaded, super-secret wagon train. The goal is said to be gold, and the establishment of a new town, but Matt has his suspicions. He also has an eye on the beautiful Jacquine Coyle - daughter of one of the leaders of the train. As they move further and further from civilization, tensions increase on the company - until all hell breaks loose.One of L'Amour's later works. In several places he segues into commentary on the "get it and get out" mentality of the western expansion and its long term disastrous affect on the environment., and on the Native Americans.
