Matt's Oath: A Classic Western - Paperback

by Orris Slade (Author)

Orris Slade, best-selling author of the "Cully the Bounty Hunter" books, delivers another Classic Western of right vs wrong.

In the booming mining town of Cripple Creek, Colorado, two young roosters, Matt and Tommy Dawson are out to prove themselves. Hot blooded, impulsive, and quick with their guns, the Dawson boys walk around town like they own it.

One dark day, nineteen-year-old Tommy runs into Ned Shute, an outlaw from Wyoming. The young man pays with his life.

Matt makes an oath to avenge his younger brother's death and sets off on Shute's trail. Weeks turn into months as Matt travels across several states in hot pursuit. Every time he gets a sniff of where the murderer might be, he arrives too late.

Doubts persist - will he ever find this killer and make good on his oath? Or will his inexperience and naivety lead him to the same fate as his brother?

Can Matt find the strength and guidance to persevere and keep his promise before he returns home to the loved ones anxiously waiting for his return? Blood will spill and men die in this grisly tale of good vs evil... but justice will prevail.
