Excerpt
...my father stood on the bulkhead, his fishing hat pushed back on his head, smiling, calling out to me to get a move on. We were going out on the boat. I couldn't understand what his hurry was, the sun was shining and the sky was perfectly clear. We had the whole day ahead of us. But no...something wasn't right. As I drew nearer I saw that he wasn't smiling at all; his lips were drawn tightly over his clenched teeth in a grimace of pain. Then he stepped down into the boat and cast off without me...Life does go on...
Grab those side-irons, saddle up and join former Civil War sharpshooter Luther Henry for a ride into pure terror, western-style…think ‘Wild Wild West’ meets ‘The X-Files’.
