Wyatt in Wichita: A Classic Historical Western

By: Shirley, John

Before he became a legend, he was a man on the edge of the law-and on the hunt for justice.

In the wake of his young wife's death in 1870 Missouri, Wyatt Earp is a broken man with nothing left to lose. Drifting westward, he lands in the raw, untamed towns of Ellsworth and Wichita-places teeming with saloons, gamblers, and gunslingers. But in the face of lawlessness, something stirs in Wyatt: a hunger for justice.

When a young woman is found murdered in Wichita, Wyatt is drawn into a dangerous hunt for her killer. The investigation pulls him deep into the city's underworld, where whispers of corruption reach all the way to the top. With Bat Masterson at his side and danger around every corner, Wyatt begins to forge the iron will that will define his legacy.

Along the way, he may have crossed paths with a young Billy the Kid-or traded words with Wild Bill Hickok in Deadwood. Blending fact with fiction, this story reimagines the little-known early years of a man who would become an icon of the American West.
