Coming off the disaster on the Monongahela, Jacob Murray and his
young friend Joshua return to Fort Cumberland under the command of
George Washington. The defeated British army soon withdraws further
east, leaving the frontier virtually undefended. With the frontier
left unprotected, Delaware raiding parties begin striking the
settlers in an effort to clear their lands of the English. Jacob
and Joshua lead a company of militia deep into the French-held
Pennsylvania frontier. They plan to build a fort that will not only
give the local settlers peace of mind and added protection, but
serve as a 'home base' from which they can continue the search for
Jacob's wife Maggie and Joshua's best friend One-Ear. Though the
raids seem to lessen with the presence of the well-constructed
fort, the Delaware have not withdrawn completely. A rescue mission
soon turns out disastrous when the men are ambushed and Jacob is
taken prisoner by chief Tewea, the dangerous warrior nicknamed
Captain Jacobs. Help often comes from unexpected sources, and the
Murrays soon find themselves face to face with ghosts from the past
and a mysterious band of sentinels that are keeping watch over the
Pennsylvania forests. www.thegauntletrunner1754.com
