Justice demands a heavy toll... but a man of honor always pays up. Foy Banning's life changed forever when he witnessed his father, Jeremy, brutally murdered by his father's business partner, Grael Rehnquist. Traumatized and sent east to live with his aunt and uncle, young Foy buried the memory deep within his mind. Now, ten years later and on his way to medical school in California, eighteen-year-old Foy stops in his old hometown of Bodeen to pay his respects at his father's grave. A chance encounter with his former governess, Meelee, stirs up old suspicions. Jeremy Banning's death wasn't an accident-it was cold-blooded murder. Determined to unearth the truth, Foy dives headfirst into his own investigation, one that puts him square in the sights of his father's killer. Out of his depth and facing deadly threats, Foy crosses paths with Shawnee, a notorious outlaw with a strict code of honor. Moved by Foy's quest for justice, Shawnee takes the young man under his wing. Together, they navigate a treacherous landscape of hired guns, deceit, and the relentless pursuit of the law. In a land where justice is as elusive as a desert mirage, will Foy and Shawnee be able to peel back the layers of corruption and uncover the sinister secret about a dam project that Jeremy died for? Or will Rehnquist beat them to the punch, burying the secret of the stolen river along with them?
Autorenporträt
Despite being a born-and-bred New Yorker who lived most of his life in New Jersey, Bob Giel was a cowboy at heart and lived by the cowboy code. When most of the world today laughs at the quaint and seemingly antiquated concept of honor, he embodied it. Always faithful. Always loyal. Always giving his best effort. Always honest. And perhaps most importantly, keeping his word no matter what. Those values weren't just an act or an affectation, but something he worked at and recommitted to every day. Sadly, Bob passed away in early 2023, but his work and his ethos will continue to live on in his writing.
