About this listen

 Alone in the big city, a fierce young frontierswoman must outsmart a dangerous con man before she can stake her claim to the family fortune.

Sixteen-year-old Echo Sackett has never been far from her Tennessee home—until she makes the long trek to Philadelphia to collect her inheritance. In the wilderness Echo can take care of herself as well as any man, but she never imagined the challenge that awaits: a crooked city lawyer who intends to take advantage of her by any means necessary. Echo will need all of her wits to best this scoundrel and make it back home in one piece.©1983 by Louis L'Amour; (P)2000 Random House, Inc.; Bantam Doubleday Dell Audio Publishing, A Division of Random House, Inc.

This is an excellent western featuring one of the Sacketts, this time a young girl called Echo Sackett. Set in 1840 she shows all the grit, intelligence, determination and accurate shooting we have come to expect from a Sackett in a Louis Lamour story. It is well performed by Jamie Rose and is a thoroughly entertaining adventure.

Another fun Sackett story

Great story and nicely read. Have, a long time ago, read most of the Lamour books but it is much nicer to listen to them.
