A brand new Mountain Man adventure from John Sammon!
After suffering a broken leg and ribs, Zeb Simms is rescued by a band of the Mandan tribe and taken to their village. At the Village of the Snow River, Zeb is nursed back to health by a beautiful Mandan widow, Sha-ka-ko.
A deep love develops between them. Zeb becomes a member of the Mandan people. But first he must endure the torturous Okipa Ceremony.
When the village is sacked by Sioux renegades, Zeb—now a full-fledged war leader of the Mandan known by his tribal name of “Plenty Man”—undertakes an expedition for revenge and to regain his Mandan wife.
A sequel to the Battle at Buffalo Hollow... Blood at Buffalo Hollow is a story of true love between a man and a woman triumphing over cultural differences, of the daily lives of tribal people, the hunting of the buffalo, and the certain punishment of evil.
