Friend  of such stalwarts of the West as Kit Carson, Thomas Fitzpatrick, John  Hatcher, and the Brent brothers, Charles and William, Honoré, at  ninety-nine, has lived the life that has become the dime novel. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs  a young schoolboy, Jean Guy was considered a genius. The only thing  distracting him from his love of books was his love for a kitchen maid,  Nicole. When Nicole is raped and brutalized, Jean exacts revenge,  murdering the rapist and stowing away on an English packet bound for New  Orleans. It is there that the young Jean Guy changes his name and  becomes Honoré Greenwood, soon to become one of the legends of the  American West.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNew Orleans is an exciting place for the young  Honoré, but falling in love with Gabriela Badfillo-a beautiful young  woman from Taos, New Mexico, who is promised to another in an arranged  marriage-forces Honoré to flee, brokenhearted into the wilderness. He  volunteers for a most dangerous project, building a fort right in the  heart of Comanche country. His orders are to establish trade with the  warlike, horse-rich Comanches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Mexican War and the California  Gold Rush usher chaos into the plains. And the Comanches are a proud,  powerful, and unpredictable people, but Honoré earns their trust, but  the vile whiskey trader, Bill Snakehead Jackson, is happy corrupting the  Comanches and breeding violence between them and their ancient enemies,  the Apaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt will take all of Honoré's genius and his strange  power to hold the trade together. Because his power follows the phases  of the moon enabling him to go without sleep for days, the Comanches dub  it Moon Medicine. Through it all, Honoré becomes a successful trader  and ransom negotiator, earning the title Plenty Man. But when Gabriela  desperately calls for help, Honoré will risk everything he has for the  woman he still loves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tom Doherty Associates","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47124883341552,"sku":"9781466820067","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781466820067_p0.jpg?v=1769891003","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781466820067","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
