Synopsis

Two cattle men are in a battle for control of the valley near the small town of Lone Oak, Texas. In their quest for power they bring in gunmen and thugs, the kind of trash no one else would hire. After both ranchers are killed in gunfights the thugs find themselves in control, with no wages being paid out they do that they do best murder, rob, and steal. Joe a drifting ex-cavalry officer trying to outrun the memories of his past and the reputation of a gunfighter, finds himself trapped, held captive by the one thing he was not looking for, the love of a woman

À propos de l?auteur

At twenty-six, Sherlene and I became husband and wife and it's been a great life . We have three children, ten grandchildren and now two great- grandchildren. Together we've worked logging timber everywhere from the hot humid swamps of Louisiana to the frozen snow covered mountains of Canada. I write about how it feels to have the cold blade of steel cut through flesh and muscle and how it sounds as it grinds across bone . The sledge hammer like blows from the soft lead of a bullet shattering bone and cartilage seeking to take a life. I write about these things because I have lived through them. I never learned to write in a school or classroom, life has been my teacher and that is how I write.
