Destry Rides Again (Heathen Edition)

By Max Brand

Max Brand was one of many Frederick Schiller Faust (1892-1944) pseudonyms, a prolific American writer known primarily for his Westerns. First serialized in 1930 as "Twelve Peers" in Western Story Magazine, then published that same year as the standalone novel Destry Rides Again, the book announced Brand at full power: a frontier mythmaker stripping the West to its moral bones. In Harry Destry - half innocent, half avenger - Brand forged a figure who walks straight into the heart of a crooked town and forces it to reckon with the justice it pretends to believe in. Destry's mission is stark and simple: to settle accounts with the twelve jurors who sent him to prison on a lie. One by one, he means to confront them - not as a madman with a gun, but as a man determined to expose what each of them truly is. And standing at the threshold of that reckoning is Charlotte Dangerfield, the woman whose loyalty, clarity, and quiet courage complicate every step of Destry's long-nursed revenge.
