Synopsis

William Tell Sackett had followed a different path from his younger brothers, but his name, like theirs, was spoken with respect and just a little fear.  Where Orrin had brought law and order from New Mexico to the plains of Montana, backed up by the gunfighting talents of his brother Tye, Tell Sackett's destiny drew him to Texas after he had to kill a man.  There, in the high, lonesome country, he came upon a vein of pure gold.  All he'd wanted was enough to buy a ranch, but he soon learned that gold had ways of its own with men.

Goodreads review by PowerAvocado on June 24, 2024

Both are in troubles and leave their mother to look for a better place to live. Their goal is to bring her in when they find it. Orrin has no brains for......more

Goodreads review by Jacob on February 05, 2015

Deciding to read the Sackett novels in chronological order was bound to have some rough jumps as they were written throughout L'Amour's career—and completely out of order. This, the sixth chronologically, was the first he published. The fourth was the last (shortly after Ride the River, my favorite......more
