Hell Hath No Fury is the first book in the John Hawk western series. The book begins with Jamie Pratt and his young bride on their way to the Rocky Mountains. They get to Helena when their wagon master deserts them and leaves them for dead. The other settlers decide to try and set stakes where they are, but Jamie and his wife decide to head towards Bitterfoot Valley, deep in the heart of Sioux territory. When they never come out the other side, Jamie’s brother enlists John Hawk to try and find them. It’s a suicide mission for any normal man, but Hawk is no normal man.
