There’s gold in them thar hills—and Preacher’s making sure it gets where it belongs. From the New York Timesbestselling author of Preacher’s Journey.
 
They call him Preacher. And they call him when they need help. Now, a Mexican brother and sister have asked the legendary frontiersman to accompany them into the Sangre de Cristo mountains—to find a missing family fortune of gold and silver.
 
But another man has been lured by the promise of wealth—a treasure hunter whose only motive is pure greed. He’s hired a posse of killers to ride by his side. Preacher has never shrunk from a fight, and the hills will echo with the blast of gunfire before they give up their bounty.  
 
Praise for the novels of William W. Johnstone
 
“[A] rousing, two-fisted saga of the growing American frontier.”—Publishers Weekly on Eyes of Eagles
 
“There’s plenty of gunplay and fast-paced action as this old-time hero proves again that a steady eye and quick reflexes are the keys to survival on the Western frontier.”—Curled Up with a Good Book on Dead Before Sundown

About the Author

Christopher Graybill has performed solo or partial narration for more than seventy-five audio books, including Listen Up and Audie Award winners.



William Wallace Johnstone (1938-2004), born in southern Missouri, was a prolific American author, mostly of Western, horror, and survivalist novels. He began writing in 1970 but had his first novel, The Devil's Kiss, published in 1979. After his death, it was announced that a carefully selected author had been chosen to carry on his legacy. J. A. Johnstone is continuing William W. Johnstone's series.



Colleen Delany has been a sparkling jewel in the crown of Washington's vastly talented acting community for thirty-seven days now and will confidently challenge to a fierce best out of three in "paper-rock-scissors" anyone wishing to topple her from that lofty perch. Primarily a stage actress, --having played roles at Shakespeare Theatre Company, Goodman Theatre, Arena Stage, Signature Theatre, Folger Shakespeare Library, Studio Theatre, Olney Theatre, Woolly Mammoth, Theater J, Washington Stage Guild, Theater of the First Amendment, and Source Theatre, among others--Ms. Delany does a you-name-it of various acting jobs, including audiobook narration.



J. A. Johnstone is an author who cowrote numerous novels with William W. Johnstone, a prolific author of Western, horror, and survivalist novels. After William W. Johnstone's death in 2004, J. A. Johnstone was chosen to carry on his legacy.



Terrence Aselford is a professional narrator, editor, and director. He has been commissioned by the Library of Congress and recently founded the Cutting Corporation, a company specializing in sound effects for science fiction series.

William W. Johnstone is the USA Today and New York Times bestselling author of over 300 books, including Preacher, The Last Mountain Man, Luke Jensen Bounty Hunter, Flintlock, Savage Texas, Matt Jensen, The Last Mountain Man; The Family Jensen, Sidewinders, and Shawn O'Brien Town Tamer . His thrillers include Phoenix Rising, Home Invasion, The Blood of Patriots, The Bleeding Edge, and Suicide Mission. Visit his website at www.williamjohnstone.net or by email at dogcia2006@aol.com.

Being the all-around assistant, typist, researcher, and fact checker to one of the most popular western authors of all time, J.A. Johnstone learned from the master, Uncle William W. Johnstone.

He began tutoring J.A. at an early age. After-school hours were often spent retyping manuscripts or researching his massive American Western history library as well as the more modern wars and conflicts. J.A. worked hard--and learned.

"Every day with Bill was an adventure story in itself. Bill taught me all he could about the art of storytelling. ‘Keep the historical facts accurate,' he would say. ‘Remember the readers, and as your grandfather once told me, I am telling you now: be the best J.A. Johnstone you can be.'"

Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2017

No doubt the best of Johnstone’s work that I have read thus far. Multiple characters, plot twists and plenty of action as always. Out of his element, Preacher holds steadfast to his principles and learns a little along the way. Don’t miss the authors note at the end; truly profound and refreshing.

Preacher does what Preacher always does and saves the day. In this book he’s also charged with finding and saving some lost gold. It’s a fight to the finish from beginning to end.

Not as good to me as the others before. I found some parts downright boring. This is still a decent book to read in the Preacher series. Looking forward to the others. Hope they are better

This is a must read for any student of western lore or just anyone who enjoys a well written book about the west. Preacher's journeys are some of the most interesting and entertaining stories ever written. And William W. Johnstone is an amazing author.
