Saw this author at a music event. His music is wonderful. His writing is even better than wonderful. He has exceptional insight. This was the first of his work I had the pleasure of reading. Since finishing it I have bought Moon Medicine and Come Sundown. Keep writing MB!

Another great story - smooth- exciting (but not overly)the story itself has good lessons. Claude Duval looses his best friend to a backshooter. Claude promises Dusty, I'll get him if its the last thing I do. Claude, hired by a rancher who had 60 Bramma cattle stolen from him, meets a fine looking women, and the man who murdered his best friend. But they are all involved in capturing a gang of outlaws. It's a good read.
This is a great example of life on the western range.
