Stuart's Wolf, Ghost Smiler, Hash Face, Red Legs ...
Even in the Territory of Utah, people spoke the names under their breath. Men glanced over their shoulders when they heard them and mothers whispered them to unruly children. In the summer of 1869, the names summoned a legend bloody enough to frighten away sleep.
That same summer, the legend rode down into Utah Valley like a stray curse from Moses. No one knew where the man came from and everyone prayed he would keep moving. Everyone that is but ten-year-old Rose Lee Merrell. The irreverent daughter of a Mormon bishop, Rose loved the "devil man." He first appeared as a paradoxical answer to a prayer when Rose and her beautiful older sister, Laurel Anne, were attacked by three drunken soldiers on the road to Provo.
In the space of a few wicked seconds, the devil man killed the attackers and earned the gratitude of the girls' father, Bishop Lee Merrell. The thankful bishop opened his home and farm to the man known as Stuart's I Wolf.
Merrell' s decision alarmed the quiet community. Gradually, as the saints were forced to confront not only the fearful reality of Stuart's Wolf but their own hearts as well, the Christian fabric of the valley began to unravel. Neighbors armed themselves and clamored for their bishop to rid them of the infamous gunman.
But Stuart's Wolf wasn't leaving. -A damaged leftover from the carnage of the Civil War, the devil man ran out of time and space. More ominous, he'd seen Laurel Anne Merrell. With the fierce and irrepressible help of Rose Lee, Stuart's Wolf took his first steps out from darkness.
