The group of easterners Rock Bannon was scouting for faced another problem. They were being deceived. When he warned them to remain on the Humboldt Trail, Sharon Crockett and the others refused to listen. Mort Harper, a stranger riding a beautiful black mare, had dazzled them with his charm and good looks. The southern route was the best way to go, Harper told them. But best for whom, Bannon wondered. That route led straight to the Salt Lake Desert. The conditions would be brutal. And if Harper wasn't steering them toward those deadly alkali flats, where were they headed? And what would happen once they got there? 650 $a Scouting (Reconnaissance) $x Fiction 650 $a Wagon Trains $x Fiction 650 $a Overland journeys to the Pacific $x Fiction 655 $a Western $v Fiction $v Fiction 700 $a L'Amour, Louis, 008 s1985 941 $a 1 952 $l REPC017 $d 20220407011855.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=20D159FAB63811EC99599F991FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
