Okay, pardners, gather ’round the campfire. I got a tale to tell ya!
Bloody Joe Mannion is the town marshal in peaceful Del Norte. It was not always this way. Once upon a time, Del Norte was overrun with every kind of lawlessness one could imagine. That is why Joe was hired in the first place. Now, he has two deputies, and one of the bigger problems they face is some rowdy ranch hands. Oh yeah, and the spoiled son of the richest rancher in the area. One day, this son breaks a month-long ban, incurs some property damage, and Jow hits his limit. This son and three of his friends burn down Joe’s house, kidnap (and savagely rape his daughter) and leave Joe for dead. Joe does not die. Now, he is hell-bent on revenge, and nothing will stand in his way. He wants his daughter back, and the bastards that took her to pay, in blood.
Actually, it is Peter Brandvold telling the tale, and this one is, in my humble opinion, is one of his best. Everything you could want in a western is within these pages: action, adventure, romance, a villain you really want to despise, a tortured hero who has a list of personal rules he does not break, and a town that needs his help whether they want it or not.
One of the other things going for this book is the writing. If you are a fan of Mr. Brandvold, then you are aware of his writing style, and you can watch the movie of this book unfold in your mind. If this is your first “Mean Pete” book, then you are really in for a treat! You will blow through this book in no time. It is written to flow like the Colorado River after a storm, and you will not miss a thing.
I could say I liked this book, but that would be a lie. I LOVED this book, and I am eagerly awaiting the next one in the series!
I give this 5++ bookmarks out of 5!!!!!!
