The saga that began in FLINT'S GIFT and FLINT'S TRUTH continues in FLINT'S HONOUR, a gripping new novel about Sam Flint, a dedicated frontier journalist. Sam Flint knew he's made a big mistake the minute he pulled into Silver City. He'd heard the city was two miles long, and three yards wide, and that wasn't far from the truth. Built high up in a tight valley, there wasn't a foot of space to be bought or bartered, and the few rooms there were had already been triple-rented. It was a fool's errand, but the journeyman editor and printer felt an honest journalist had to take on the Silver City Democrat, a second-rate newspaper run by a corrupt editor. An honest journalist, Sam Flint strongly believes it is his duty to take on the lies of the Democrat, but how can he launch his own paper when the whole town is in his rival's pocket.
It is 1877. All over the American West, frontier towns have sprung up, drawing people in search of new beginnings after the Civil War. Among these towns, Payday is a paradise of rolling meadows and balmy skies, with a quiet population of ranchers and merchants. Into this Eden comes young editor Sam Flint, whose newspaper, "The Payday Pioneer," earns him friends with the town and trumpets Payday's glories throughout the West.
Sure enough, "The Payday Pioneer "lures settlers to the town. But to Sam's dismay, they are settlers of the wrong kind. Soon, Flint finds himself in the middle of an all-out war for control of the town. Perfect Payday is in danger. But Sam Flint is willing to put his life on the line for what he believes in.
