In 1904, Chief Dalton and several of his riders are commissioned by the Canadian government to deliver a United States criminal to Kansas City, Missouri in exchange for a Canadian woman facing criminal charges.
Dalton agrees to the Canadian terms and heads south with the United States criminal.
There are many twist and turns as Dalton arrives in Kansas City, Missouri. The Pinkertons, who are commissioned by the United States government, have no intentions of honoring the exchange.
After getting acquainted with his relatives, Dalton enlists several of them to assist him in getting his Canadian prisoner to Canada.
Dalton must hide and work in secrecy as he runs up against perverts, Pinkertons and several lawmen in Kansas City, Missouri.
Dalton and his secret agents are forced to kill several people in order to get his Canadian prisoner on the train to Canada.
The Pinkertons pursue the train as it heads north to Canada and a massacre takes place in North Dakota. There is disappointment and despair as the Canadian secret agents bury the dead.
This book is based on certain sourced facts and is a must read.
The author thanks the Government of Saskatchewan for their cooperation in making the portrait of Chief Piapot available. The cover portrait is one of several great paintings from the Edmund Morris Collection.
