Sudden Country
13-year-old David Grayle’s mother owns a boardinghouse. A strange visitor, Jotham Flynn, fresh out of jail, has come to tell his story to Judge Blod, a writer of dime novels and a boarder at the Grayle home. As it turns out, Flynn has a treasure map that leads to a fortune in gold stolen from the Union Army back in ’63 by Quantrill’s Raiders, a band of outlaws. Flynn is murdered by a passel of persons unknown, the map falls into David’s hands and Judge Blod, David and David’s schoolteacher, ex-Union officer Henry Knox, decide to mount an expedition to the Dakota Badlands to recover the gold. Reminiscent of Treasure Island, sprinkled with just the right combination of desperados, oddball characters, and authentic western flair, Sudden Country will draw you into the badlands and hold you ther to the final word.
The Long High Noon
Locked in a deadly feud, cowboys Randy Locke and Frank Farmer have spent decades attempting to annihilate each other any time they are within shooting distance.
So far, the men are even. One of Frank’s bullets has given Randy a permanent limp. Vain Frank wears a prosthetic ear, his own lost to Randy’s assault. If either of them remembers the original reason for the feud, it seems moot now.
Their quest for revenge has led them on a merry chase through the Old West–through soon-to-be ghost towns and major cities; cattle ranches and mountain cabins; brothels and fishing boats; jailhouses and movie sets. Even their marriages have fallen victim to the feud.
The story of their long-term hatred well known throughout the country, Frank and Randy are approached (separately, of course) by Abraham Cripplehorn with a proposition. With the popular Buffalo Bill’s Wild West show a raging success, why not publicize their next duel and sell tickets to the event? Winner take all, in more ways than one.
Frank and Randy make a date for death…but will they be able to wait for the show? And could it be that their decades-long thirst for revenge is the only thing they are living for?
