Outcast
Miles Standish is running, accused of unspeakable crimes. The "Moose Creek Cannibal" seeks refuge in an isolated cabin near the frontier town of Last Chance, Montana. He is pulled into the lives of his neighbors, Iona and her son Arch, and learns they have been victimized, too, by a community eager to believe lies rather than to seek the truth. Samuel Bodner, the only other person to survive the hell at the Moose Creek Mine, relentlessly pursues Miles. The pursuit has so ensnared Miles that he wonders if he really is the "Moose Creek Cannibal." He comes to care deeply for his neighbors and must decide if he is willing to sacrifice his anonymity and his life to save them from the evil visited upon them. "The miners, innocents all, didn’t recognize the beast that stalked in their midst until an early blizzard stripped them of shelter and food. They huddled in one tent, listening to the winter winds sing of their deaths. Hunger stalked these men, felling them one by one." Praise for books by Gary Svee: "Sanctuary" "This beautifully written novel reveals the author’s compassion and his love for Montana. Heartily recommended."–"Library Journal" "Spirit Wolf" "A Western, but the furthest thing from a shoot-em-up. This is a compelling and sometimes cruel story told in good plain English, without sentimentality or bravado."–"Kirkus"
Sanctuary
Gary Svee’s Spur Award-winning novel of a town caught at the edge of hell — and the lone man who came to set things right. There was much to fear in Sanctuary, Montana. Small, poor, and brutal, it was a place people fought to leave, not one they sought out. Most men tasted the bitter bile of the place and moved on — until one day, one man came to stay.
He arrived by train — a tall, slim man in a dark suit and a preacher’s collar. But this preacher was no angel of mercy. He drank whiskey, gambled, and faced down hard men in the street, wielding his belt like a whip of righteousness. And his dark eyes seemed to seek the secrets in the townspeople’s souls — their hidden desires, their vilest thoughts and most shameful acts. He would soon know everything, for he was the dark form of both unholy vengeance and blessed salvation. He was Mordecai….
And God help those who would stand against him.
