Alice of Old Vincennes saga unfolds at river town
In this fragment from a Vincennes set tale, Alice and Jean are adopted children of Guapard Housailion as news arrives of liquor landing. Indian Long Hair flees with brandy, a chase ends in a shooting, and Alice discovers a locket while aiding allies. Amid sieges and loyalties, Captain Hamilton clashes with Father Beret and Farnsworth, and Alice’s fate tightens around fort defenses, captivity, and a wounded pursuit.
