Traders and Miners
Historical Fiction (Novel Adaptation) Feature or Series
When a daring group of outsiders including a branded mutineer, a courtesan, a wastrel, an outcast maid, and a grieving widow embark on a risky venture in the treacherous Navajo frontier, their lives intertwine as they gamble everything on the promise of the untamed American West.
They were a motley crew, these dreamers and outcasts gambling their lives in a fierce new land. Carlin Napier, the branded mutineer fleeing his past into the arms of a Navajo beauty. Felicia Montez, the ravishing courtesan trading decadent pleasures for dusty trails. Hernando Dundee, the wastrel burning through chances and lovers. Anjali, the Hindu maid cast out from her home. And Maria, the grieving miner’s widow determined to find freedom.
Driven by raw hungers and passionate dreams, they plunged into the untamed wilderness, the heart of the Navajo nation. They aimed to stake their claim in this dangerous territory and launch a daring venture that would rewrite their destinies. Though from vastly different worlds, they were bonded by their thirst for adventure and their desire to leave the old ways behind. Together they would face the perils and promises of the American West, their fates intertwined on the wild frontier.
