Here's the set-up:
Autry and Oxana Quinn return to Girouette, Montana, a near ghost town on
the eastern porch of the Rocky Mountains to spend the month of July
with their grandfather, a rock-ribbed old Marine known as The Captain.
Having spent the month leading up to Christmas the previous year with
The Captain and his five old friends (captured in the book Next
Christmas in Girouette), the kids are eager to rediscover life as it
used to be lived in the wild Old West. They learn to ride and shoot and
sleep under the stars, of course, but they also learn to live with the
silence surrounding Girouette—without benefit of television, computers,
cell phones and so on—and revel in the adventures of the self-styled
“diehards” who still inhabit the town.
Oxana, who personifies
precociousness, convinces The Captain and his friends there is only one
way to keep Girouette from giving up the ghost and enlists their help in
her extravagant plan. In addition to The Captain, her sidekicks in
this “Tom fool adventure” are: Ron Running Elk, a Blackfeet Indian horse
trader who was once the mayor of the town; Joe deSpain, who used to
publish the town’s newspaper; Imo Apple, who operates the café that is
the town’s only surviving business; and Beau Vadeboncor, a deaf-mute
trapper who, though almost 100, lives by himself in a cabin hidden in
the mountains.
While Oxana is rescuing the town, Autry is struggling
desperately to save himself from an adversary more formidable even than
the stark circumstances of northern Montana, including the rough
countryside and the rough weather, which have brought Girouette to its
knees over the years. Appearing for the first time in this series is
Michael Night Heron, a young Blackfeet Indian who hopes to restore the
mine that may hold the secret to the town’s rebirth and who has an
unsettling effect on Autry and Oxana’s summer in Girouette.
One Reviewer Notes:
Michael Welch has created characters that are easy to love. One adventure follows another each bringing the reader to wondering what will happen next.
I am looking forward to the sequel.
