The number one bestselling Western from Randall Dale!

This is the first book in a brand new Western series from award-winning author Randall Dale! Ride with United States Marshal – Branson Hawk!

This new series opens with an attempt on Marshal Hawk’s life by an unknown gunman, along with a mysterious telegram from Wichita, written to the would-be killer, along with a second telegram with the name of Hawk’s sworn enemy, Deputy James Cartwell, on it as another target for assassination.

Wichita holds memories for both of the targets of the “hit,” and even though they hate each other, they reluctantly join forces to hunt down the person who ordered the hit on them.

Their pursuit takes them on many adventures together, occasionally getting sidetracked to chase down bank robbers and murderers such as Blackjack Parmeter. The result is that their dislike for each other turns into reluctant respect, along with some surprising Wichita connections to their past lives and families.

The Posse: A Frontier Justice Western: A Brand New Western From The Author of "Pardner's Trust" Aug 2, 2018

by Randall Dale , Paul L. Thompson , Charles Ray , Scott Harris , Russ Towne

( 47 )

$0.99

The American West from 1870 to around 1900 is often portrayed as a place devoid of law and order and the basic elements of polite society. While it’s true that there was lawlessness, with bands of outlaws and lone gunmen threatening the public order, there were also marshals, sheriffs, and Pinkerton detectives devoted to keeping the peace and upholding the law. In addition, when necessary, average citizens banded together in posses to go after those who broke the law.

The Posse by Randall Dale is just such a story. When outlaws steal a shipment of bank money from the bank in Peace, Arizona, several citizens join the marshal, his deputy, and the Pinkertons who were charged with guarding the money, in pursuit of the felons. The author has done a superb job of painting a colorful and, from my own research, accurate picture of life in a small frontier town struggling to maintain a degree of civility and order.

Every character, from the desk-bound Pinkerton agent who is assigned the enormous task of ensuring the safety of a hundred thousand dollars from El Paso to Tucson, to the deputy marshal I Peace, who quietly, but doggedly tries to uphold the law, is described in a way that the reader can relate to them, cheer them on, glory in their triumphs, and bemoan their failures. The people on these pages aren’t cardboard, stereotypical characters usually associated with the Western genre, but real people, with hopes, dreams, and insecurities.

In 1851, President Jefferson Davis authorizes a daring plan for the Confederacy to win the war by taking control of the west. What became known as the Army of New Mexico, a rag-tag group of Texas volunteers, held the balance of the war on their shoulders as they marched to control Northern New Mexico then Denver and on to California and Oregon. The Captain’s Coat is an historical fiction novel following two individuals through the march. Captain Paul Styles, second in command and procedurally rigid to the extreme, is anxious for victory for his beloved Confederacy, and Monroe Weaver, a young cowboy with no interest in the war or the Confederacy, only the money he’ll receive for taking care of the animals on the march. At odds from the beginning, two men with differing motivation play pivotal roles and must work together for the plan to succeed. So different, yet so alike, the men’s willingness to cooperate is stretched to the limit. Throw a beautiful girl into the mix and …. Well, read it and see.
