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.

Really well done!

This is a fantastic western in the tradition of Louis L'Amour and Max Brand. Great story with wonderful characters, and the narration was terrific.

Great western story

This is an enjoyable, action filled western story, set after the civil war. A school teacher, his sister, a young man looking for his kidnapped friend, and a scarred ex-soldier, form a friendship as they help each other fight the bad guys. The narrator, J Scott Bennett’s voice fits this story so well. He gave the characters their own voice and made you feel like you were in a western. This is a well written, enjoyable story and I would happily listen to others by this author.

Fantastic

This was definitely the western genre at it's best, Loved the book. It was action filled and the characters were very well done. The narrator did a great job of bringing the world to life and kept you wanting to listen to more. I was given a free copy of this audio in return for an unbiased review.

A great western story with excellent narration

This is a great western story. We enjoyed the story line. We would read other books by this author. The ending left a little to your imagination.

The narration is excellent. We always enjoy listening to J Scott Bennett. He does a great job with the characters. We have listened to other books by J Scott Bennett and enjoyed all of them.
