Stare Down the Devil

Raised in his mother's Blackfeet village, Buck Drake knew little about the white man's world except for the example of his British father Jules, a man devoid of courage, honor, and morals. To escape a raid gone bad, Jules betrays Buck into the hands of the Fort Bridger soldiers and Buck vows to one day hunt him down. The Fort Bridger Commander gave Buck a choice: agree to work in a covert unit in the escalating War-Between-the-States, or hang as a criminal. He chose the war, a decision that swept him into a life-altering journey through the white man's world, and to making friends who would shape his future.The ensuing years found Buck a war hero, Army scout, drifter, and convict. He was a man trying to find his place in the rapidly changing West, ever drifting between his Blackfeet people and the bigger world around them. Then, came the day his old friends recruited him into a manhunt for a criminal gang led by the murderous Jules Drake. Here he would find the path to his future, while at the same time fulfilling his vow.
