"It's rare that you get a writer like Carol Buchanan; an historian with a novelist's ear capable of rending the individual voices of character into the orchestral narrative of a sweeping story." (Craig Johnson, author of the Longmire series.) Between 1860 and 1900, Montanans had to make dangerous decisions to survive. 150 years ago, the word "vigilante" meant "vigilance" or "watchfulness." Community policing was normal. Citizens were largely responsible for their own safety and the safety of their neighborhoods. When ruffians ruled and murder was tolerated, the Montana Vigilantes became the community police. They have fascinated me since I stood in the Hangman’s Building in Virginia City, Montana, and heard the ropes creak. So far I’ve written four historical novels about them: God’s Thunderbolt: The Vigilantes of Montana The Devil in the Bottle: The Tragedy of "Jack" Slade Gold Under Ice & The Gold Room: Two Short Novels The Ghost at Beaverhead Rock These novels won Spur and Spur Finalist awards from the Western Writers of America, and the “Spirit of Dorothy Johnson” award from the Whitefish Library Association in Whitefish, MT. Delayed by my recovery from a concussion, A Time of Trial, the fifth novel in the Vigilante Series is on schedule for publication during Thanksgiving weekend 2023 in the United States. The story: Lawyer and Vigilante, Dan Stark’s legal battle to save his family’s gold mine becomes a war to save his family.
