E-book


The Garden of Eden is a classic western action novel by American writer Max Brand.

Ben Connor is a gambler who knows horses. He goes out west to get away from the gambling life he has been leading in New York. There he discovers a breed of grey horses that he thinks are the best horses he has ever seen. The problem is that these horses are bred in a secret valley known as the Garden of Eden and that outsiders are not welcome there.

Connor sees these horses as a means of getting rich on the race tracks, but how to get one is a problem. So, Connor decides to infiltrate the small, isolated religious cult in order to get his hands on their purebred Eden Gray horses.
