A desperate fight against powerful enemies! After her father died, Pat Ryan continued to operate his railroad in the Northwest mining and cattle country. Jim Grimwood knew that a mining syndicate was out to get the railroad from Pat - and if they couldn't buy it, they'd take it. The battle began dirty. First a locomotive was derailed. Then a roundhouse was set afire. And, finally, guns began blazing!--Adapted from preliminary page [1].
