Louis L'Amour
About this listen
Wetherton discovers a rich vein of gold ore, but every rock he removes increases the chance that the unstable tower of rock will collapse on him.
Louis L’Amour (1908-1988) was a prolific writer of novels and short stories, usually frontier stories of the American West. Book sale estimates of 230 million and 330 million rank L’Amour among the bestselling authors in world history. L’Amour’s fiction continues to enjoy immense popularity as books, audiobooks, and films. L’Amour received many awards, including the Congressional Gold Medal and the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
L’Amour was born in Jamestown, North Dakota, the seventh child of a large animal veterinarian. He was a voracious reader and largely self-taught. He traveled the world as a merchant seaman, earned money as a professional boxer, worked as a rancher, miner, and lumberjack, and served as a lieutenant in the U.S. Army in World War II.

When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.
