Rogue River Book

Cole Anthem had chased a bad man down. Now, he was paying the price.The captain was a madwoman with a scattergun. The soldiers were a whore, a surveyor's assistant, a writer, a crusty old Irishman, two murderous brothers, a criminal, and a bounty hunter. And the only way out of the mountains was on a frigid river that flowed toward the Missouri-a river running with blood.Texas born Cole Anthem was the bounty hunter. He had followed an outlaw right into the middle of a major Indian uprising and a battle that turned into a slaughter. Now Cole and the other survivors of a raging Cheyenne war are taking the only chance they have: riding a woman's keelboat toward safety. But up and down the Rogue, a glory-mad chief hasn't given up. His warriors are armed and waiting-to spill the white men's blood...Rogue River is Kerry Newcomb's classic, action-packed tale of war and pursuit in his acclaimed chronicle of the Texas Anthem family-and their battles on a breathtaking frontier.AUTHORBIO: Kerry Newcomb was born in Milford, Connecticut, but had the good fortune to be raised in Texas.He has served in the Jesuit Volunteer Corps and taught at the St. Labre Mission School on the Northern Cheyenne Reservation in Montana.Mr. Newcomb has written plays, film scripts, commercials, liturgical dramas, and over thirty novels under both his own name and a variety of pseudonyms.He lives with his family in Ft.
