Publisher's Summary:
Marty Keller, ex-Texas Ranger turned bounty hunter, is on the vengeance trail to find the three men who murdered his family. After being wounded, he is cared for by the widow of a murdered sheriff and she convinces him to search for the sheriff's killer as well. She asks a friend of the sheriff, an Indian, to help. The two are slowed by many battles along the way but eventually track the killers across the Southwest into Mexico.
Side-tracked again, Marty gets involved in defending a large ranchero from Mexican bandits. It is during this battle that he finally learns who killed his family and why.
Members Reviews:
Excellent but flawed
This is an almost wholly satisfactory ending to the story of Marty Keller,reluctant bounty hunter,as begun in the previous book "Man Killer".
It is seven years later, and Keller is still on the hunt for those who murdered his wife and son. When he runs out of money, he turns to bounty hunting to fund himself. He has become a legend, but one that that he doesn't like, as the inherently warm and friendly Keller is scorned by "decent people" because of his profession. Wounded after a shootout, he is taken in by a widow whose sheriff husband has been backshot and his murderer uncaught; soon, Keller recovers and is motivated by gratitude to go after the sheriff's killer, only to find a link to his own quest as a result.
The disconcerting weakness to this otherwise well-written book is bad proofing. A six thousand dollar money order is made out; when it is received, it is sixteen thousand. Keller looks for a blonde man; in the next town, he continues to seek, but the man is now dark. Keller states that he has killed only one of the five who murdered his wife (though in the first book, he gets three); he gets the last two, and it is now all over. These repeated errors are distracting.
Nevertheless, a good book. But flawed.
THE GREATEST BOOK EVER!
Just imagine. You go out to go on a cattle drive and your Mexican hand gets killed. Your family dies also. Then you decide to go after your family's killers. You become a Bounty Hunter in the ol' wild west. You catch some outlaws for the money they bring upon themselves. Then you're about to die when you come up to a widow's ranch and you just pass out there. She helps you out by taking out the bullet out of your shoulder. She keeps you at her ranch to help you rebound from your near death experience. Then she tells you, while you go riding with her, about her husband's killer. She asks you if you could help her out by getting her some revenge from her husband's killing, and/or murder. So, you go after her husband's murderers and you give 'em what for. You also, while helpin' this widow out, save a ranch from your actual murderers. You give 'em a war. Then you go after the rest of 'em. Then you catch up to 'em and get your revenge. So, you go back to the ranch you helped out and leave and go back to the widow's ranch and live there for a long time. READ THIS BOOK IF Y'ALL WANT TO FIND OUT MORE!
