Prescott (MacLean Brothers Series Book 3)
About
Raised on a Virginia plantation amidst brothers of divided loyalties, Ezekiel "Zeke" MacLean, a Union veteran, is appointed by General Sherman to assist George Crook at Arizona's Fort Whipple. The ongoing conflict with the Yavapai and Apache is a constant threat to the emerging white settlers in the region.
When gold fever hits, adding chaos to the already volatile landscape, Zeke and his capable Sergeant Coventry are spread thin trying to keep a lid on the explosive situation. In the midst of it all, they begin to uncover a plot by a cunning outlaw who is using the existing chaos to cover his crimes, making them appear to be the acts of raiding indigenous bands. The fact that some of the Prescott Valley’s most prestigious families continue to profit from the chaos has MacLean suspicious.
In the midst of it all is Eleanor Graves, a woman who has captured Zeke’s heart. Is she, too, a victim, or is she also playing a role in the high-stakes game being played out in Prescott? Unraveling the mystery and exposing a conspiracy among Prescott’s elite is a dangerous venture sure to destabilize the entire region.
