The Last Wagon Train

About the book

Renowned authors of Western literature are back with an exciting new series set in West Texas, much to the delight of their devoted fans.

Will this upcoming event mark the end of the wagon train era?

A new railway is scheduled to reach Hansen's Bend, signaling significant changes in the Old West. The Callahan family, who have operated the local wagon train service for years, now face a formidable opponent in the form of Arbuckle, a haughty rail executive determined to drive them out of business. Arbuckle belittles the Callahans' traditional wagons and boasts that his crew can lay track faster than the wagon train can traverse the mountains.

Despite the odds, Callahan agrees to the challenge, only to meet a tragic end before the competition begins.

But the story doesn't end there. Luke "Tomahawk" Callahan, the son of the wagoner, returns to Hansen's Bend after a long stint as an army scout. Unaware of Arbuckle's scheme or his father's fate, Tomahawk is shocked to read the headline blaring, "The Last Wagon Train?" A determined journalist proposes to accompany the wagon train on its journey to capture the thrilling conclusion. Tomahawk, driven by a desire to uphold his family's reputation and seek justice for his father, embarks on a perilous quest.

Arbuckle, however, is not one to play fair. He dispatches his minions to sabotage the wagon train, intent on ensuring that Tomahawk and his wagons never reach their destination alive.
