About the book
Years before the legendary mountain man Preacher roamed the wilderness, a young explorer embarked on a journey with a group of fur traders from St Louis, eager for adventure. In the untamed frontier, he hoped to find riches, but instead encountered violence, treachery, and the birth of a myth. Armed only with a blade, he faced off against a ruthless Blackfoot war party, ultimately slaying their chief in a daring act of valor. However, a brutal bear attack left him gravely injured, vulnerable and defenseless. When the Blackfeet tracked him down once more, he was abandoned and betrayed, with his last hope resting on his gift of gab - the ability to talk his way out of perilous situations and fight for survival.
