I'm Just a Blacksmith (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798651895427)

The year was 1877. Out in the wild uncivilized west Chief 'I will fight no more forever' Joseph was outrunning the U.S. Cavalry. At the same time in the 'civilized' world a storm of sedition and murder was well underway. Everyone caught in its path was injudiciously disposed of. It was a matter of join them or die.This seditious group, a secret society, is headquartered and firmly entrenched in Boston where Senator Malcolm Magnusson resides. Senator Magnusson is an honorable man and does not succumb to the wiles of this secret society. This makes him and his family targets for this unholy organization. As the story unfolds an attempt is made on the lives of the Senator's wife and daughter. Tovar Cooke, a blacksmith from Dakota Territory inadvertently thwarts that attempt and exposes the Senator's Head of Security as part of the conspiracy. Now Senator Magnusson is in a quandary. Where can he find a man to protect him that has not been influenced by this secret society? He focuses on Tovar. Tovar is not interested. Tovar's original desire was to put up with going to Massachusetts Arts and Engineering University for a month then go back home and return to his blacksmithing duties. His plans were altered when he met a fellow student. She was only interested in getting an education to advance her architectural skills. He was only interested in getting back home. But the attraction between the two overcame their initial desires and soon they became secretly married. Tovar realized his position. He was a bug about to be crushed by a monstrous machine. Common sense would tell you to go back home where you could at least tell who your enemies were. But common sense went out the window when Tovar's wife, Allison, saw the pleading eyes of the Senator. So the simple blacksmith from Springfield, Dakota Territory was thrust into an adventure that would take on a highly organized political machine that had no mercy for those who stood in their path.
