Reseña del editor:
FOR FANS OF: Larry McMurtry, Elmer Kelton, William W. Johnstone John Henry Cole's life has quieted down from what it had always been, and he can now settle down and make improvements on his small ranch. But everything changes when an old rancher named Wilson rides in with his two sons. Wilson is willing to pay Cole $5,000 to help get back his wife Lenora who has been taken hostage by Lucky Jack Dancer, an outlaw who had robbed the train on which she was a passenger. She is being held prisoner in Gun Town, a safe haven for outlaws. Cole had sided Lucky Jack Dancer years ago when both of them had operated as U.S. Marshals in the Indian Nations, but that was before Lucky Jack had quit the service and become an outlaw. The situation becomes complicated when Cole learns that neither of Wilson's sons wants the woman back and that Wilson's health is seriously compromised.
Biografía del autor:
Bill Brooks is the author of many highly acclaimed historical and frontier fiction novels. After a lifetime of working a variety of jobs, Brooks turned to his first love writing. Brooks wrote a string of frontier fiction novels, beginning with The Badmen (1992) and Buscadero (1993), before he attempted something more lyrical and literary: The Stone Garden: The Epic Life of Billy the Kid (2002). The Stone Garden was compared by Booklist with classics like The Virginian and Hombre. Brooks went on to write in succession three series of Western novels, beginning with Law For Hire (2003), then, Dakota Lawman (2005), and finished up with The Journey of Jim Glass (2007). He lives and writes in Florida. His next Five Star Publishing Western will be The Life and Times of Tom Dooley, coming November 2016.
