It’s 1907, a time just after the American gunfighter, and just before the noir detective. A time when men with a certain experience were called upon to solve 'difficult' problems. Men like Johann Gunther, former Army officer, former Rough Rider, former Texas lawman, and owner of Remedies Investigations in Fort Worth, Texas. unther, having served under Teddy Roosevelt in Cuba, finds himself summoned periodically by the President. He’s called for a special assignment. His job? To accompany a U.S. and British Army expedition to faraway Afghanistan and find a missing Army Colonel. Once he arrives, he discovers the Colonel is a traitor, involved with Russians and warlords in the 'Great Game' of turning Afghanistan into a land grab for all the riches of the Asian continent. Join Gunther as he first tracks renegade Indians in Montana, then ride with him as he fights vicious, bloodthirsty tribesmen and political madmen through the Straits of Gibraltar into India and up the Khyber Pass for a climactic battle at a fortress atop the world. This is book 4 in the Johann Gunther Western Adventure Series.
