Summary
Buck Duane, son of a famous gunfighter, falls prey to the old problem – called out by a cowboy who wants to make trouble, Duane kills him and then must ride off to the lawless country near the Neuces River to escape being arrested and perhaps, hanged. His brief encounter with deadly gunplay has ignited a deep urging to repeat the adrenaline rush but is tempered by ghosts that haunt his sleep. He only dares to release his inner demon when he is taking down an outlaw who is particularly known for his brutality. He develops a reputation for killing the most notorious Texas outlaws, which draws an unexpected interest: a captain of the Texas Rangers offers him a pardon and a ranger’s badge if he will infiltrate the gang of the shadowy figure known as “Cheseldine” who wields vast power in West Texas, and make it possible for the Rangers to break the gang’s hold on the region’s towns. Duane accepts, never guessing in his wildest nightmares that he would sniff out this Cheseldine, his hideouts, his lieutenants… and fall in love with his daughter!

This was a great story, it made you feel you were in the old West and you also realise that it was not hyped up. The author's descriptive, skilled story teller text and his intense pace keeps you glued to every word. The narrator's voice and inflections were outstanding! His skillful narration seemed to fit the setting, brought it to life and carried you seamlessly throughout the entire book. Wonderful! I have now downloaded all the books I can by this author. You could really feel the heat, smell the horses. Excellent book.

My first ever Zane Grey and a good one!!! I listen to audio books during my one hour commute and always found myself anxious to get back to this story. Mark Smith is my favorite narrator to date!!!

Classic Western tale.

Profile Avatar Anonymous May 2020

Ran Mattison... A great story. True to life, making you realize the good people can complicate their lives, with one rash act when young. The author takes us back to that time and area through his descriptions. And Mark Smith does an excellent job of bringing it all together in his narration, making this a very enjoyable listen!

If you are soft hearted but tough you'll enjoy this book.

Profile Avatar Walter Taylor May 2016

Enjoyed the lone wolf aspect of the main character! Staying true to code of the west! A great read!

Profile Avatar Elizabeth Pedersen Oct 2014

If you enjoy wrangling, ranching, gunfighting old westerns you'll like this tale of a bad man gone good. And even better is the excellent narration by a true southerner.
