South in the Fall: Book #3 in The Apprentice Serices

More about the book

Blackthorn Wolfe has one chance to prove himself the team's chief scout. He must lead a loaded mule train from El Paso to Fort Laramie in 1852. If he fails, Pascal, owner of the freight business and his godfather, will cancel Blackie's apprenticeship, leaving him behind with no horse, no food, and no weapons. At seventeen, Blackie must prove he can lead the mule train, or lose it all.
