- Synopsis
- Continues the exciting saga of the the pioneering men and women who built the Union Pacific Railroad--from the Great Plains to the mighty Pacific Ocean. THEY CAME TO CHEYENNE ... GLENN GILCHRIST--He was a Harvard-educated engineer, one of the innovative minds behind the building of the railroad. But the West would give him a different kind of education . . . MEGAN O'CONNELL--Her loveless marriage ended when her husband died in a flood. But Megan did not fear the dangers of the land--and dreamed of starting a new, independent life in California. LIAM O'CONNELL--He came to the frontier to find adventure --and found he hid a taste for whiskey, a quick hand with a gun, and a nose for trouble. AILEEN O'CONNELL--Her sister stood by her when a drunken husband abandoned her with two children to feed. But following her dream west led straight to her worst nightmares . . . EAGLE WING--He was a hot-tempered Sioux warrior who hated the railroad and all it stood for. His ambition to become a war chief made him the railroad's most feared and dangerous enemy. JOSHUA HOOD--Chief hunter and scout for the Union Pacific. He knew the plains and the Sioux as well as any white man alive, but he was a babe in the woods when he had to talk to a pretty woman! WILLY--A hard-living Indian fighter who fell in love with a Cheyenne beauty. They'd make a home in California--if they made it that far ... CASSIE--She worked the dance halls and saloons, a pretty half-breed who could satisfy any man with a few dollars to spend. When her one true love died in a bar fight, she took revenge the only way she knew how. DOCTOR THADDEUS WISEMAN--A healer who had seen suffering at its worst on Civil War battlefields. Now his dreams lay in the open West--if he could survive a new war against the Sioux. LEROY HAWS--A mule skinner, as tough and mean as they came. He worked for the railroad builders. But when he shot a man in a barroom brawl, he was his own boss, master of his uncertain future. . . .
