The Last Trail

The last light of summer bleeds across the Ohio wilderness, and a small party of travelers knows they should have reached Fort Henry by now. Mr. Sheppard, his daughter Helen, and their nephew have pushed deep into a territory where their guide has abandoned them, and the darkness is filling with footsteps that don't belong to friends. When hostile Indians materialize from the treeline, the journey becomes a fight for survival. Then Jonathan Zane arrives like something out of legend: a borderman whose name alone carries the weight of the untamed frontier. What follows is a tale of rescue, pursuit, and the forging of destinies in a world where civilization is just a rumor and every shadow might hide death. Grey captures the frontier's raw brutality and fierce romance, the way the wilderness both threatens and promises. For readers who crave adventure, historical Westerns, and stories of ordinary people tested against extraordinary danger.
