Synopsis: Slocum’s going to get down to the bottom of things…
John Slocum’s riding his Appaloosa to the Triple T Ranch for work when he decides to pay a visit to his longtime friend Marybeth Meecher. But instead of a smile from her shining face, he’s greeted by the business end of a shotgun wielded by a scowling old man named Miguel. He’s Marybeth’s handyman, but he hasn’t seen her in three months…
Miguel is also seeing fewer of his friends from a nearby Crow Indian tribe. Rumor has it, they’re being used as slaves in the mines at the Triple T Ranch—not exactly the kind of work Slocum wanted. But after an attack from a gang of thugs, Slocum knows that finding out where everyone’s disappearing to and seeing Marybeth again means he’ll need to do some digging…
