Dust and Gold. The Prospector Series, #4

Gold dust, dynamite, and bad decisions follow Willy Wimple and Hank Honeycutt wherever they go. Willy's a fast-talking, shovel-swinging schemer with more charm than sense. Hank's a grumpy, mule-loving mountain of a man who'd rather dig than talk. Together, this mismatched pair of prospectors scours the frontier for the next big strike-and usually finds trouble instead. From cursed mines to crooked claim-jumpers, their wild misadventures strike just the right balance between gold-fever dreams and good old-fashioned frontier chaos.
