Fighting Davy Crockett #9

Davy Crockett races to expose a dangerous conspiracy when a renegade named Chuck Sears infiltrates Fort Cummings and opens its gates to Chief Red Stick's warriors, leaving the frontier under siege. As settlements fall and panic spreads, Crockett mobilizes General Jackson's forces and desperate settlers to mount a unified defense against Red Stick's growing war party—but the arch-enemy's cunning and ruthlessness may prove more dangerous than raw numbers. With his own family caught in the path of destruction, Crockett must confront the savage uprising before Red Stick's ambitions consume the entire western frontier.

In 1831, Davy Crockett uncovers a cunning scheme by Comanche Chief Hollow Heart and his warriors—they've disguised themselves in stolen paleface clothing to infiltrate settler towns and strike from within. Racing against time to warn the frontier communities, Crockett must track down the costumed raiders before they can launch their devastating attack on Mineville.

Kit Carson and his band of independent trappers head into the Rocky Mountain streams to trap beaver, but instead find themselves caught in a deadly crossfire—Cheyenne warriors armed with brand-new rifles are systematically driving all competitors away from the lucrative fur grounds. Suspecting a darker plot, Kit tracks the raiders back to Fenton's Trading Post, where he uncovers the renegade trader's scheme to hand over weapons in exchange for a beaver monopoly. With quick thinking and some clever tinkering, Kit turns the tables on both Fenton and his unwitting Cheyenne partners in a clever gambit that leaves the monopolist scrambling for survival.
