About this listen

A wild and dangerous ride takes two lonely men into uncharted territory....

1943 Montana. Returning home to Montana after being wounded in the Pacific, Police Chief Robert Garrett was hoping for a little much needed peace on earth and goodwill toward man. Instead, he finds himself chasing after a cold-blooded killer on Christmas day aided - whether he likes it or not - by eager young reporter Jamie Jameson.

Jamie has idolized Police Chief Garrett most of his life. Despite a stolen birthday kiss seven years earlier, he knows his feelings are unreturned. Even if Rob felt the same, there’s no room in their world for such feelings between men. But while Jamie can accept Robert not sharing his feelings, he won’t put up with being treated like a troublesome kid brother. He too has a job to do and he intends on traveling this bloody and twisted road with Robert Garrett - no matter where it leads.

Josh Layton writes a mean short story, condensing a man hunt and the fruition of a romance into a perfectly formed tale. There's action aplenty, a car chase, cop killing, hostages and a developing relationship of the friends to lovers variety. Set against the backdrop of a war being fought overseas, this was full of interesting and well rounded characters, and one of my favourite romance types, the stoic man willing to quash his own happiness for the good of others. I thought the way Lanyon dealt with the scene where the bad guy was finally caught was clever and really fit both the time period and the story length. I was more interested in Rob's growing realisation that he could have a life with James than how they caught the bad guy, so it was perfect, got me what I need to know and let me get on with the scene I wanted.
Masters did an excellent job with the narration.

A joy
