Finally, settlers and Shoshones alike would have access to goods and supplies. Soon, however, things started to go wrong. Borke wasn't just selling trade goods, he was selling liquor, which had severe consequences for the Shoshone warriors and their families. Even worse, Borke started trading with the Crows, selling rifles to the enemies of Touch the Cloud's people. What began as a blessing soon turned into a grave threat. The once-peaceful Shoshone village, torn apart by Borke's firewater, would be an easy target for the bloodthirsty Crows. Will Touch the Clouds, Nate King and his son be able to stop the bloodshed before it's too late?

And if Nate failed to defeat those vicious enemies, he'd wind up buried beneath six feet of dirt.
