The Hangman Cometh

By Don Hackett

It's the 1870s in the state of Texas. James Fionnghall was sadly orphaned at an early age. As an adult, he first became a Southern Baptist Minister. Not long after, he became a Texas State hangman. James is a troubled man with a dark past who's on an intimate trek in search of righteousness. Although a devout Christian, he's criss-crossing Texas performing executions. He perceives he's attempting to lay bare his own brand of salvation. More and more, he struggles with the impression that his chosen occupations are morally diametrically opposed. Gradually, his vocations become overtly, inextricably entwined, pulling him into a deeply personal existential crisis.
