Free (Kindle) The Long Chase by S. J. Bounds [Western Reluctant Fugitive Adventure]
The Long Chase by the late prolific British multi-genre author S. J. Bounds (ISFDB, Wikipedia, SFE) is his western historical action adventure novel, starring an aspiring cowboy reluctantly forced into inadvertent outlawry through getting mixed up with the wrong crowd, going on the run to escape both the long arm of the law and his former fellows turned enemies, free courtesy of publisher Endeavour Press' Pioneering imprint, who are e-printing it from its 2001 edition originally out from Robert Hale as part of their Linford Western Library line using the Jack Greener pseudonym.
Currently free @ Amazon (available to Canadians & in the UK and pretty much everywhere else that Amazon sells worldwide, since this is being done via their KDP Select exclusive-or-else program) Description (probably a typo, but it would be interesting if the big bad in this really was suffering from a Jekyll & Hyde situation) On the run… Newt had always dreamt about becoming a cowboy. When he wins a shooting competition and is offered a job as a guard, he sees it as an opportunity to finally fulfil his lifelong dream. But the job is with Doc Solomon, the crooked owner of Golden Pacific Railroad, and things quickly turn sour. One night Doc unwittingly witnesses Solomon’s wrongdoings first hand and is forced to kill a fellow guard. Self-defence it may have been, but soon a number of men are after Newt, each with their own reasons to catch him. With only Solomon’s prestigious racehorse for company, Newt must use all his cunning to escape the law, bounty men, and savage killers on his tail. Will he be able to outrun the price on his head? Or will The Long Chase prove too much and the scheming Solomon get his way yet again? |
