The Shawnee Trail

Long John Coons, the Cajun son of a conjuring woman, was driving 2000 head of cattle north from Texas to the railroad in Kansas — through Indian Territory and outlaw strongholds. At his side was a beautiful woman with a sordid past, three ex-cattle rustlers, some renegade Indians, Mexican vanqueros and a straight-laced young trail boss. And while Long John tried to keep his hot-headed crew from killing each other before they reached the end of the line, the biggest danger was waiting up ahead — where an all-out war in Kansas would make the Texans fight together, or die at the same time.
