• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Before he brilliantly traversed the gritty landscapes of underworld Detroit and Miami, the incomparable Elmore Leonard wrote breathtaking adventures set in America's nineteenth-century western frontierelevating a popular genre with his now-trademark twisting plots, rich characterizations, and scalpel-sharp dialogue.

For every story of inspiring moral courage in America's untamed West, there's one of greed and duplicity, of corrupted souls willingly sacrificed to a merciless deity of ill-gotten gold. The New York Times-bestselling Grand Master brings us seven unforgettable western tales of noble stands and cowardly compromisesand battles of will more devastating than a blazing gunfight.
