Long Lightning: A Classic Western Adventure - Paperback

Holt Brandon has strung telegraph wire from the Pecos to the Rockies, and buried men who tried to stop him.

Now Mountain Telegraph has one last contract: push a line through the Montana wilderness to the boomtown of Warlock before the deadline runs out. Brandon has never lost a race against the wire. He doesn't plan to start.

But someone wants him dead before the first pole goes in the ground. Outlaw king Sherm Lucas is dogging his trail with hired guns. A ruthless rival company is cutting wires and burning wagons. And the mysterious woman who saved Brandon's life has warned him away from the one valley he has to cross, for reasons she refuses to name.

The miles are long, the deadline is closing, and every stretch of wire is paid for in blood. Brandon will fling the long lightning across the mountains, or die in the trying.
