It is the madness of men that draws both Marshal Boone Crowe and Deputy Rud Lacrosse onto the separate trails of two killers. A vicious bounty hunter has seized an innocent man, and it is Crowe who is in a desperate chase across Wyoming to set the captive free before harm comes to him. But a wintery blizzard buries his hopes under a barren landscape of snow, images of war, and the haunting faces of despairing women. Lacrosse, tracking a wounded murderer, finds himself in a deeper battle within himself, a struggle against sudden violence, and the truth of who he really is, all the while bridled with a confused passion for a beautiful but mysterious girl. Track of the Wolf pits Crowe against Gaylord Wolfson, a man wrestling with demons of his own and using the Wyoming Territory as his punishing ground. In the midst of a devastating winter storm, the marshal is drawn closer to the world of Indian lore and to the strength of its power and helped in his survival by the miracle of a ghost horse.
About the Author: Buck Edwards finds kinship with the windblown tumbleweeds of America's prairies and wide open spaces. A traveling man, Ed- wards, when not rooted between the pages of a good book, can be found tramping the historical sites across the country, from Fort Ticonderoga and Plimoth Plantation, to Gettysburg, Fort Sumter, and the Alamo. His western writing-roots came from a youthful love for the books of Zane Grey, Owen Wister, Alan Lemay, and Conrad Richter. Raised around horses and cattle, Edwards enjoys studying the landscape surrounding his prairie home in eastern Washington, as well as the regions where his books take place-Wyoming, Nevada, Utah, and Montana. When asked if Marshal Boone Crowe is his alter ego, Edwards refers them to writer Norman Mailer, who once explained that writers must be able to create characters that are stronger than they are, braver than they are, and perhaps even handsomer than they are. Edwards says that Marshal Boone Crowe is all of these things. The Marshal Boone Crowe series consists of Dead Woman Creek; Showdown in the Bear Grass; Judgment at Rattlesnake Wash; and Track of the Wolf. A fifth addition to these westerns, The Widow Makers, is due out later in 2015. They are all available through Amazon in paperback, or on Kindle, and also on Barnes and Noble's NOOK.
