Laramie

By Don Stoddard

Before the Civil War winds to an end, Lieutenant David Wharram rides west to begin a new life and eventually reaches Laramie, Wyoming. With saloons and brothels as the town's thriving businesses, the setting is ripe for a soldier looking to get lost after the war. Wharram is hired as a deputy town Marshall and finds companionship in a pair of ex-Union soldiers from Indiana who fought at Gettysburg. Early on in the story he displays his superb marksmanship and fighting abilities. His comrades and the Marshall quickly learn of his amazing talents of observation and deduction, a talent he later uses to unravel the mystery surrounding the murder of the Marshall's wife.. In Laramie, Don Stoddard's second novel, the author exhibits an exceptional ability to write in multiple genres. This brilliant tale, reminiscent of Louis L'Amour novels, weaves an exciting mystery with humor, old west gunfights and heartwarming romance.
