Band Creek rail saga tests loyalties and bribes
A complex tale follows Graham Norcross and secretary Jimmie da as they witness a train hold up near Band Creek siding and witness John Chadwick's abduction. Norcross is offered a rail line job amid Mollied power brokers led by Breckenridge Dunton. Dodds uncovers a bribery plot by Hatch and Skenckol aimed at influencing an election to prop up Dunton’s control, while Sheila Macras faces personal loyalties and hidden marriages as Norcross navigates danger, blackmail, and the fight to reform the Pioneer Short Line. The narrative shifts through schemes, disguises, and a high-stakes battle inside the railroad’s political and business empire.
