Catamount Press, 2023

From the battle lines of Pennsylvania to the dank confines of a British prison in Detroit, Martin Joe Richtier must recover a stolen shipment of Spanish gold in Powder Mission-a gripping Revolutionary War saga of danger, intrigue, and romance. High-Stakes Revolutionary War Espionage: Set against the backdrop of George Washington's beleaguered forces, the narrative follows a perilous mission to transport critical Spanish gold and gunpowder from New Orleans through enemy-infested territory to save the Patriot cause. A Gripping "Race Against Time" Narrative: The plot centers on Martin Joe Richtier, a personal envoy of General Anthony Wayne, who must take sole responsibility for recovering a stolen shipment of gold while navigating a landscape of shifting loyalties and military intrigue. Authentic Frontier Adventure: Readers are immersed in the brutal reality of the 18th-century American frontier, featuring river pirate ambushes, survival in Indian-dense territories, and the "dank confines" of a British prison in Detroit. Compelling Romantic Tension: A central element of the story is the complex relationship between Richtier and the courageous Hester Jordan, whose suspicious ties to Tory sympathizers create a layer of romantic conflict and internal doubt. Expertly Rendered Historical Detail: Written by noted historical novelist Herbert E. Stover, the book leverages "intimate knowledge of the times and terrain" to bring recognizable historical figures and settings to life with executive-level precision. At the edge of the American frontier, a desperate mission is forged in the fires of the Revolution. George Washington's forces are cornered, and their only hope lies in a secret shipment of Spanish gold and gunpowder traveling north from New Orleans. But when the gold is stolen, the fate of the Patriot cause falls onto the shoulders of one man: Martin Joe Richtier.
