"Sunset Pass; or, Running the Gauntlet Through Apache Land" by Captain Charles King is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows Captain Gwynne and his children as they embark on a perilous journey through Apache territory, faced with treachery, danger, and the threat of Native American attacks. As the characters navigate this treacherous landscape, themes of loyalty, bravery, and survival emerge amid the tension of impending conflict. At the start of the novel, Captain Gwynne, recently bereaved, decides to take his children, Ned and Nell, east to their home despite warnings about Apache renegades in the area. As they travel through the rugged terrain with their team, tension builds with the skepticism and concern of Al Sieber, a seasoned scout, who urges Gwynne to reconsider. Unwilling to turn back, Gwynne pushes forward with his loyal servant Jim and the Mexican driver Manuelito. However, as they set up camp, Manuelito’s treachery becomes apparent when he tries to flee with the horses. Meanwhile, fear for the children looms as Apache fires signal their presence nearby, foreshadowing the imminent danger that awaits the vulnerable party. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
