In the dusty streets of the Old West in 1869, drought ravished the state of California and people were dying off in the thousands. The town of Truckee on Lake Tahoe was the only source for fresh water. Politicians controlled the state's water supply and sold it back to the people for profit by transporting it throughout California via the newly completed Union Pacific Railroad. With Truckee locals being kidnapped and killed, one western gunslinger reluctantly conned his six shooters and inserted himself into the middle of the fray. This pistol toting lone ranger fought his way through the state to bring down the government that was hell-bent on destroying everything in its path. One gunfighter hated by all became an unlikely hero, through high stakes gambling, drinking, public executions and shootouts on top of a moving train. The Tale of Truckee is book on in the Coleman Haynes Wild West series, so there will be plenty more action and adventure to come.
