Synopsis: He was a big dog--black and powerful-and his name was Vic. Looking back, it's hard to figure whether it was a piece of luck or a promise of just plain trouble that awaited Vic the day he showed up in the wooded gorge near Jim Williams' ranch. Let's say it was a little of both. Trouble, because Williams' black wolfhound, Pete, had turned cattle killer without anyone's knowing it. Luck, because Vic met up with Williams' younger brother, Gene, who loved the great, huge dog on sight. Gene tried his best to lead Vic home. But before he could, the gentle, man-shy dog had fled before a hail of bullets meant for Pete. Shot at, caught in a blinding blizzard, starving, Vic at last found refuge with old Dan Arden. But even Arden's tender care could not make him forget his friend. And so once again the courageous dog escaped his captors. But together, Vic and Gene were to face an even greater danger in the path of a deadly, whirling tornado and its flashflood wake. Vic, a Dog of the Prairies, is yet another absorbing tale of a memorable dog by the master story-teller of the Old West, Thomas C. Hinkle.
