About the book
On the rolling Missouri River, a riverboat carrying fur traders, a US senator, and Prussian royalty is making its way to the Yellowstone from St. Louis. The Preacher is also onboard, knowing that the safety of the passengers is crucial for the fate of the nation. However, facing multiple threats including two beautiful women vying for his attention, a killer, and a band of river pirates, Preacher must stay vigilant.
After successfully warding off these dangers, the riverboat is suddenly caught in the midst of a violent Indian ambush, resulting in a Prussian nobleman and his family being held captive. Preacher is compelled to go after the attackers, despite facing a traitor who is determined to take him down.
There are sinister forces at play, aiming to spark a war and alter the course of American history. Only a solitary mountain man armed with his deadly accurate aim and a barrage of bullets can prevent this from happening.
