Black Bear Vendetta: Riders of the Frontier
He fled a massacre, leaving ghosts and blood in his wake. Now, the frontier demands a reckoning.
Haunted outlaw Jeremiah Black, his gang shattered after a brutal raid on the Allihies West mine, escapes into the treacherous San Juan Mountains. Driven by desperation, he seeks one last score, partnering with a dubious gambler to target a gold train winding through the unforgiving canyons. He believes he can outrun his past, but the past rides hard and carries a badge.
Young Caleb O’Malley, robbed of his father in the raid, sets out consumed by vengeance, his grief forged into a deadly purpose. He finds an unlikely, reluctant mentor in Sheriff Cole Archer, a lawman burdened by his own failures, who sees the perilous path the boy treads. Deputizing Caleb, Archer aims for justice, not just retribution, as they follow Black's cold trail into the heart of the Colorado high country.
As the pursuit tightens, Cole and Caleb uncover Black’s desperate plot, forcing a confrontation where bullets fly and plans shatter amidst rock and ruin. Separated from allies and facing the raw wilderness—including encounters with nature's own savage fury—their hunt becomes a brutal test of endurance against a cornered man growing more dangerous, more unhinged, with every step.
From snow choked passes to the site of an unimaginable horror, the chase leads relentlessly towards a final, violent showdown at the thunderous edge of Bridal Veil Falls. Cole must wrestle his own demons while guiding his young deputy through a landscape as savage as the man they hunt. Can justice prevail against pure desperation? Or will the vendetta consume them all before the final bullet flies?
Black Bear Vendetta continues the sweeping saga of the Riders of the Frontier, plunging into a relentless chase where survival is uncertain, alliances are fragile, and the true cost of vengeance is paid in blood and sacrifice.
