The Lawyer

The Lawyer should have heeded the ominous signs: a forest fire raging in the distance and the undertaker's wagon carrying away two knife-stabbed bodies. But he's a man obsessed, methodically hunting down the gang members who murdered his family, and Big Jim Kimbrough, his latest target, isn't far from the hell-blazing inferno. In a surprise turn, Kimbrough gets the jump on The Lawyer and leaves him for dead; though fortune is in his corner when a trio of frontier women find him and nurse him back to health. It's not long before Kimbrough learns The Lawyer is still alive. Desperate to rub out the man who's been dogging him, the outlaw goes gunning for The Lawyer again, determined this time to finish the job. Eric Beetner (The Year I Died Seven Times) writes the Old West with the same terse, action-packed grit as his crime fiction. BLOOD MOON is his second riveting "Lawyer" tale following the highly praised Six Guns at Sundown.
