Arriving at Fort Abraham Lincoln, deep in Dakota territory, private enquiry agents Grand and Batchelor discover the fort to be a powder keg of rumour and suspicion, petty rivalries, resentments - and closely-guarded secrets. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e When a body is discovered during a routine scouting patrol, some of those secrets rise uncomfortably close to the surface.

The General has made many enemies - but does someone have a good enough reason to kill him?","brand":"Severn House Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45036679856279,"sku":"9781780291543","price":2425.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781780291543.webp?v=1769213750","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-black-hills-9781780291543","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
