In 1874, a storm stole everything from Kit and Cale Weston — their parents, their home, their childhood. Orphans on the prairie, they are taken in by Jesse and Sabrina Mercer, who run a ranch for wayward children and teens. But behind the Mercers’ respectable front lies a darker plan.
Jesse sees potential in six of them — Jacob Calder, Logan Wilson, Sophie Ellis, Gino Manrique, and the Weston twins — a band of orphans hardened by loss, tempered by hunger, and willing to do what others won’t. He trains them not as ranch hands, but as thieves. Together, they become the Silver Ghosts, a gang as cunning as they are dangerous.
But greed has a way of poisoning even the closest of bonds. When two of the Ghosts turn against the others, loyalty shatters, and blood stains the prairie dust.
Silver Ghosts begins The Black Luck Westons Trail — a sweeping saga of orphans forged into outlaws, where family is a weapon, betrayal rides close behind, and legends are born in dust and gunpowder.
