Railroad Raiders

In the early 1870s, Nate Carlton is asked to investigate a gang attacking trains, stealing silver and cattle, and disappearing before lawmen can identify them. He goes undercover among railroad workers, entering a world where rail construction, transport money and frontier criminal networks overlap. The novel follows Carlton as he tries to expose insiders, protect his identity and bring order to a western economy where railroads have created new targets as well as new routes for escape.
