THE SEARCH BEGINS ...Once, John Stone had everything a man could ever want: wealth, position, and a woman who loved him. But that was before the Civil War. Now he's lost his fortune, and his fiancée has disappeared. All he has left is his Colt, a picture of Marie, and a mission—to roam the west until he finds the woman he loves.HE IS THE SEARCHER ...The settlers were on their way to a new life in Texas, while John Stone was stirring up the ashes of a life that died with the war. Still, he signed on to act as a scout for their wagon train. Maybe Marie had found her way to Texas ... Maybe he'd find someone who'd seen her ...Or maybe he'd die on the trail, killed by Indians, outlaws or thirst.Either way, John Stone had a dream. And nothing could stand in his way.Pages of The Searcher :
