Synopsis

AN AUDIO DRAMATIZATION

An outlaw's legacy...

In a remote corner of Utah lies the secret outlaw kingdom of Ben Curry. For fifteen years Curry has ruled supreme, as his men have pulled jobs from Canada to Mexico. But the king is getting old... he wants to turn his legacy over to someone younger, tougher. Mike Bastian is Ben's adopted son, a young man who can handle a knife, a gun, his fists, but a man who's never broken the law.

Now, as treachery explodes among Ben's riders, and two honest lawmen—Tyrel Sackett and Borden Chantry—begin to zero in on the gang, Mike must choose...between his loyalty to Ben and his yearning for a different life. Yet when the guns start echoing off the Vermilion Cliffs, the time for choosing is over—and the time for battle has begun.

Mike Bastian is the son of a man who runs an outlaw gang that operates in Colorado and Utah. He tries to lead a different lfe from his father and brothers. The characters of Borden Chantry and Tyrel Sackett figure in the story as marshals. This is up to the usual L"Amour high standard.......more

Goodreads review by Alexander on August 05, 2017

SON OF A WANTED MAN was my first L'Amour novel. I first came across it several years ago while on vacation with my parents. I read what felt like most of it then took the book home from the cabin we had rented and proceeded to never finish the novel. Then a few weeks ago, I decided to read the whole......more
