The Stars Fall on Wyoming...
Marshal Teddy Pembroke, Moon Creek's resident scientist and lawman, faces his most baffling case yet in this thrilling sequel in the Stars and Six-Shooters series. A frantic telegram arrives from a colleague: a meteorite has impacted near Rattlesnake Creek, exhibiting "extraordinary properties" inconsistent with known science and having strange effects on local flora and fauna. Teddy knows this meteor-he tracked its eerie green passage across the sky just nights before.
Gathering his trusted, unconventional team-the pragmatic frontier doctor Bill Sutter, the resourceful laundress and information broker Mei-Lin Chen, and the stoic tracker Chess Freeman -Teddy sets out on a perilous expedition into the Wyoming territory. But the fallen star has attracted more than scientific interest. Hostile prospectors guard the trails, mysterious government agents from the shadowy Department Seven are closing in, and whispers abound of ranchers driven mad by "star sickness" and unnatural changes in the land.
As Teddy and his companions confront gunmen and impossible phenomena, they discover the "meteorite" fragments are more than just rocks. Pulsing with cold blue light, exhibiting strange energies, and perhaps even possessing a form of consciousness, these "star stones" might be components of an alien technology, pieces of a cosmic map, or seeds meant to transform Earth itself. Can Marshal Pembroke unlock the secret of the Rattlesnake Meteor before competing forces trigger a catastrophe far greater than any frontier shootout?
