Scoundrel in the Thick, the first novel in the six-book historical fiction Scoundrel series, introduces the world to one of our greatest (though sadly forgotten) heroes–Thomas Edward Scoundrel. Sometimes described as ‘America’s greatest accidental hero,’ Thomas careens from one splendid adventure to the next across five of the most tumultuous decades in our history.
THE STORY
COLORADO, 1882. When his best friend's fiancée is kidnapped, an unlikely hero must battle robber barons, bandit gangs, the US Cavalry, and Cheyenne warriors to bring her home. Along the way he will also have to foil a plot to steal a country.
Civil war hero and adventurer Thomas Scoundrel didn't expect the search for his friend's fiancée in frontier Colorado to be easy. He also didn't expect to be beaten and tossed into a desert ravine by a powerful cattle baron, tortured and held captive in an Indian village, or pursued for weeks by dozens of hired guns. No matter where he turns, he is in the thick of it, and his life is on the line.
