THEY CAME TO THE COMSTOCK...
It was just a godforsaken mountainside but no place on earth was richer in silver. For a bustling, enterprising America, this was the great bonanza. The dreamers, the restless, the builders, the vultures—they were lured by the glittering promise of instant riches and survived the brutal hardships of a mining camp to raise a legendary boom town. But some sought more than wealth. Val Trevallion, a loner haunted by a violent past. Grita Redaway, a radiantly beautiful actress driven by an unfulfilled need. Two fiercely independent spirits, together they rose above the chal-lenges of the Comstock to stake a bold claim on the future. Louis L'Amour is the bestselling storyteller of the Ameri-can past with over 160 million copies of his books in print. Now, bringing to life all the sweep and excitement of the world's greatest silver strike, Louis L'Amour has written his biggest novel of the West.
