Customer Reviews

"In the distance,a raptor sounded the carrion cry."

"I know what you're thinking,Sheriff-take down the crazy Rogue Lawman and maybe get promoted to mayor or even U.S. marshal.But the only name you'll make for yourself will be chiseled on a tombstone." Another great novel in Peter Brandvold's exciting series of the Rogue Lawman,otherwise known as as Gideon Hawk.In this fast-action Old West tale we travel throuhh S/W Colorado with Hawk in pursuit of one of the worst desperados one can expect to encounter.What else could you expect with a guy carrying a handle of Wilbur "Knife-Hand" Monjosa.This character lost his hand and had it replaced with a long knife which he learned to use with merciless efficiency.He took pleasure in opening man,woman or child from stem to stern with this evil weapon.The scourge of the west,with a large band of followers and several well protected hideouts;did not deter the Rogue Lawman from using everything available to him to bring this madman down.Things look real bad when "Knife-Hand " captures Hawk and has him unarmed in his hideout.However,don't discount the Gatling Gun that Hawk finally gets hold of.When it gets down to a couple versus a large evil gang;Hawk doesn't let the niceties of the law get in his way as he turns it on the gang and mows them down for buzzard food,and a good service done for justice and the people. If you haven't read other novels by Brandvold;you're missing out on one of the best Old West writers around today.
