OverviewMultiple-Award-Winning Author of Historical Fiction Vigilante Justice from the hills of western Tennessee to the streets of New York City to the plains of the Lakota Sioux Land of Wolves finds Joseph Foster with Molly as they settle into a newfound life in the hills of Tennessee. But Abraham Lincoln's former bodyguard, the man who saved the President's life, cannot escape the Consortium as they come roaring back, killing his mother, abducting his daughter-all to coerce his Congressional testimony on their behalf. Instead, Joseph and Molly strike the Consortium in their own safe haven of New York City. In a Bonnie and Clyde-like twist, they rob from the Consortium to draw out their leader-General Dorsey. But the hidden plan reveals more than they counted on, exposing the true intention to steal the Black Hills and the gold underneath from the Lakota Sioux. Land of Wolves traverses the American landscape, where only a full reconciliation with Joseph's native heritage and a cast of characters ripped from history-including Lincoln-can bring true peace and stop General Dorsey and the evil Industrial Consortium. America marches west, hand-in-hand, with corrupt politics-perfect for fans of American history While the novels in the Lincoln's Bodyguard Series stand on their own and can be read in any order, the publication sequence is: Lincoln's Bodyguard Land of Wolves Angel in the Fog Full Product DetailsAuthor: TJ TurnerPublisher: Oceanview Publishing Imprint: Oceanview Publishing Volume: 2 Dimensions: Width: 15.20cm , Height: 2.00cm , Length: 22.80cm Weight: 0.476kg ISBN: 9781608092956ISBN 10: 160809295 Pages: 304 Publication Date: 22 May 2018 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Temporarily unavailable The supplier advises that this item is temporarily unavailable.
