In Colorado, facing a battle with winter cold and snow, he comes upon an isolated cabin and its sole occupant, a weakened bull terrier left there to starve to death. The man and dog come to depend on each otherto a point where Hagger would make any sacrifice and endure any hardship just to keep the dog alive.In the title story, Red Fire, Paul Torridon, called White Thunder by the Cheyenne Indians, and his girlfriend, Nancy Brett, are being held prisoner by the Cheyenne because they believe he can cure illness and bring rain. While Roger Lincoln, a frontiersman who has known Torridon since the early days of his feud with the Brett clan, devises a plan for their escape, Torridons captors take every precaution they can to keep him imprisoned, even if it means killing him rather than losing him.Skyhorse Publishing is proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in fiction that takes place in the old West.
