"Wild and Wooly- this Western has it all!"

Martin's latest book is a classic tale of Western vengeance and redemption in the L'Amour or Zane Gray tradition!

The story opens with McBain traveling to the dusty town of Nemesis to avenge the deaths of his only remaining family; his sister,two daughters and husband who were murdered by minions of greedy rancher Colonel Mace Dillon.

McBain promptly hits town in time to foil a bank robbery and is rewarded with a post as sheriff. Using this front, he proceeds to hunt down Dillon's six henchmen with wit, bear traps, and a smart dog sidekick.

I thoroughly enjoyed the story and found it to be written well and truly. Dialogue is sprinkled with vernacular such as "lucifers" (matches) and "critters" (any number of two and four-legged specimens).

Book Summary

The fools killed his family...then made him a lawman.

This wild and wooly western, in the Louis L'amore tradition, comes from renowned author L. J. Martin, whose over 20 novels have brought compelling reading to so many.

McBain, broken and beaten from the Civil war, is reluctant to return to his family, as a snake dwells in his belly and he can't get the images out of his mind...until he learns his sister and her family have been murdered. Then it's retribution time.
