Synopsis

Flintlock takes no pleasure in killing. But when his pal O'Hara gets bullwhipped by a trio of lowdown prairie rats, Flintlock finds sanctuary for his wounded friend at the cabin of a kindly miner and his lovely daughter. Flintlock heads out to hunt down some food. But there's more than just deer lurking in these woods. A bloodthirsty band of eight savage raiders—led by a half-mad gunslinger called The Old Man of the Mountain—wage a full-scale attack on the miner's cabin. By the time Flintlock returns, O'Hara's been beaten, the miner's been shot, and the daughter's been kidnapped...

It gets worse. The Old Man plans to make the young beauty his bride. But Flintlock has a plan, too. It's not just a rescue mission. It's a vengeance ride—leading to one bloody showdown that'll go down in history...

Goodreads review by Denice on July 16, 2018

At the end of a hard day, reward yourself with a Johnstone book. Whether set in the Old West, like this one or the early mountain settlements; you'll always lose yourself in these books. The good guys win in the end, but the story along the way takes you into the character's life and times. If you l......more
