☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis is an anthology issue containing three Western stories. "The Story of Peace River" follows a scheme involving Native Americans, trappers, and rifles, where characters including Celeste Laplaige and her father become entangled in a plot to trade furs for weapons. The story involves conflict with settlers and concludes with a schoolteacher named Andrew Keane confronting Big Fox and Lafe Keane about allowing criminals to operate in Peace River. The issue also features "The Wagon-Master" and "The Lawman," as indicated on the cover.
Seth Keane rides into the Valley of the Peace River, drawn by its quiet beauty and the promise of a new beginning after years on the trail. But peace is hard to find when the land he dreams of calling home is already claimed—by a Sioux band who see his arrival as a threat. With tensions rising and the past shadowing his every step, Seth must navigate a fragile truce with Celeste Laplaige and the wary presence of Big Fox, all while the river itself seems to whisper secrets only the land can tell.
In the rugged frontier of 1966, a young man named Lafe Keane takes up the mantle of Wagonmaster, guiding a small group of settlers through uncharted territory. With Martha and the seasoned guide Big Fox by his side, he must navigate treacherous terrain and the uncertainties of the wild west—where every trail leads not just to new land, but to the test of courage and trust.
In the dusty, lawless town of Peace River, half a century after its founding, Lafe Keane—once a man of principle—returns to face the legacy of a past he thought he’d left behind. With his son Andrew by his side and old scores simmering beneath the surface, he finds himself drawn into a clash of generations, where the ghosts of a frontier gone wrong meet the reckoning of a new kind of justice.
