    About this audiobook

    Jim Conover possessed the reputation of a man fast with a gun. But if he had to depend on that quickness today, he would be a dead man. The marvelous deftness of that right hand is gone, ruined in a dynamite explosion. And now he is a respected man working as a prospector. Dr. Clinton Alyard is a man on a mission, to rebuild his family's ancient lands and houses in England. Alyard will use anyone or anything to gain the wealth needed. It's natural that these two determined men should be enemies, one good and one evil.

      Great story that lost it way unfortunately
      Leaving gaps
      Other books of the author are good read
    • 5/5
      How does the author manage to put a new twist into every chapter of this book? The characters are very sharply drawn , the plot is crisp and unrelenting. I wish the book had been double its length.
