About this listen

Schoolteacher Konrad Diamond falls afoul of cattle baron Ernst Haeckel. Rather than invite more trouble, Diamond and his sister Lila light out for new pastures. But the vindictive Haeckel puts a price on Diamond’s head, and the bounty hunters are coming for him. The teacher and his sister fall in with Gusty Gillespie, a battle-scarred bruiser, and then fate throws the trio into the path of Jacob Millard, who is on a rescue mission for a young girl kidnapped from his town.

Konrad, Lila, and Gusty try to persuade him. It is a suicidal enterprise. But what the hell! They say blood is thicker than water. The group of four wade through a crimson tide as they ride the dark trail and do battle with bounty hunters, Cheyenne warriors, crooked lawmen, and outlaws. No one can foretell which of them will survive, if any.

Action packed from the very start this is a great Western adventure. Oswald Haeckel is the son of a cattle baron and when Conrad Diamond throws him out of school for bullying he sets off far more than he could ever have imagined as the boy lies to his father. Relationships between Diamond, his sister, a battle scarred veteran and a young lad determined to find and save the love of his life develop strongly and they fight off many adversaries before the conclusion of a really good story. J. Scott Bennett does a real good job of the narration and makes this an really good listen.
I was kindly given a copy of the book and leave this honest review.

Great Western
