MOUNT UP FOR AN EXCITING RIDE WITH A
BRAND-NEW WESTERN SERIES IN THE SAME ADULT WESTERN VEIN AS LONGARM!
In fact, it’s written by a veteran
Longarm writer...
Meet Bear
Haskell, former union war hero, former Pinkerton agent, current deputy United
States marshal, and lover of some repute.
Bear’s a big
man--over six and a half feet tall and as broad as a barn door. He wears a
necklace of bear claws taken from the grizzly that almost had him for supper.
That’s the kind of man bear is. He’s holds a grudge and he gives no quarter--to
grizzly bears or men.
Bear rides for
Chief Marshal Henry Dade out of Denver’s First District Court.
In this fourth
adventure, Henry Dade sends Haskell deep into the frozen bowels of Dakota
Territory to solve a series of unexplained murders in the little town of Sioux
Camp. Two of the town’s prominent businessmen and the postmaster have been
gunned down. Tortured with bullets, in fact.
The county
sheriff was also killed, and the first deputy U.S. marshal sent to investigate,
from the territorial capitol in Bismarck, also met a grisly fate on the streets
of Sioux Camp. So now it’s Haskell’s turn to investigate. On the way there, he
meets the beautiful daughter of a prominent Dakota rancher, and they while away
a stormy night in a storm-wracked hotel in Oxbow, in the best possible,
toe-curling fashion.
When Haskell
finally arrives in Sioux Camp, he finds the town’s sole lawman there to greet
him. But the local lawman’s about as warm and accommodating as a side of frozen
beef, for he’s hanging from a noose thrown over a beam in his office!
From there,
Haskell’s visit to northern Dakota Territory continues to go even farther
south. Things get crazier and even more dangerous when he meets up with a
non-hibernating bruin while chasing a potential killer, and the beautiful Sioux
madam who runs the local parlor house and calls herself Chance.
Oh, and there’s
also Chance’s Sioux bodyguard, Jimmy Two Eagles, and his nasty sawed-off,
double-barreled shotgun that threatens to give the nettled lawman from Denver a
particularly nasty belly ache.
It’s all here, all-action western
adventure in its rawest, fastest form—Bear Haskell, Bullets, Bruins & Lady
Called Chance!
