Young Adult Historical
Will Braddock doesn't want to be forced into an unwanted
blacksmith apprenticeship. The newly orphaned
fourteen-year-old embarks upon a quest to determine his own
destiny. He heads west to seek work on the first
transcontinental railroad. Will learns to rely upon himself
to achieve his goal. He constantly battles a young Irish thug who is determined
to kill him. A mixed-blood Cheyenne youth, whom he saves
from quicksand, gives Will two eagle talons from his amulet
in thanks. The talons save Will's life, and though not
magical, he's convinced they are lucky. When a feisty young
lady he has befriended is kidnapped by the Indians, and the
Army refuses to send troops, Will decides to risk his own
future to free her from captivity.
