Down and Dirty

'My daddy was a gator, my mammy was a bear, when I was hatched they broke the mold and that made me a mighty man. I can hoist tall pine trees on my shoulder and walk a hundred miles. Make fire with a scratch of my hairy chin and drink a whole river dry rather than cross it and get my feet wet.'



So says Misty Blue, the famed Mountain Man as he makes his way north across the border into the newly formed Dominion of Canada. He has a special mission to fulfill and as a man of his word he intends to see the deed done whatever the cost. The intended parcel delivery is to lead him into more danger than the hardened Mountain Man has a right to expect.

After meeting the dumbest, dreamiest and most well endowed Indian that nature can provide he's thrown up against a testy lady in distress and a troop of renegade Irish soldiers fresh from the Civil War with nothing else on their hands to do but make trouble.

They all circulate around a vile band of rampaging hunters led by an insane Hudson Bay agent with a heart full of hate and a mean temperament that leaves him believing he is a god in his own country and lord of all he surveys.

It'll be a long bloody haul before that parcel gets delivered.
