A novel by Jeff Crawford
In the shadow of the mighty Tetons, where the law of the wild is the only law that matters, Ezra Whitehall’s hard-won solitude is shattered by an unexpected visitor—Doc Hatcher, a weathered trapper searching for his missing partner, Stanford Wells.

Their target? The enigmatic and immensely powerful Jacques Baptiste—a man whose sprawling mountain empire hides secrets darker than the deepest hollows.
But when pride, insult, and cold cruelty ignite a deadly feud, Ezra and Doc find themselves locked in a brutal game against a foe who keeps monsters behind locked doors. In the high country, friendship is forged in blood and vengeance is delivered without mercy.
Raw, unflinching, and relentlessly atmospheric, Dragon of the Mountains delivers classic Western grit with a chilling twist.
