Silver Cloud, Montana. A mining town welcome to all seeking to make their fortune. And a place where a lawman has to watch his back before some hardcase empties his pistol into it.

Deputy US Marshal Jeremiah Halstead is escorting notorious outlaw John Hudson across the territory for trial when he's ambushed by a pack of Hudson's men anxious to rescue their partner from his custody. Halstead puts the blast on them, but outnumbered and outgunned, he has little choice but to hole up in an old mining town known as Silver Cloud, Montana. It's a place where he can keep a lock on his prisoner while figuring out how to get past Hudson's gang alive.

But the folks in Silver Cloud are none too happy playing host to the lawman or his kill-crazy prisoner. Unable to trust the sheriff to back his play, Halstead finds himself standing alone against Hudson's gang as they slip into town, recruiting gunmen to help free their leader.

Except for Ed Zimmerman. He's spent his whole criminal life in John Hudson's shadow. He wants Hudson dead and buried so he can become the leader of the gang. And if he must, he'll put everyone in Silver Cloud six feet under - including Deputy US Marshal Halstead . . .

This book is much different than the many I’ve read since I was twelve years old. (I’m 75, now) It was a lot of fun, and had just enough twists and turns to keep an old man’s interest. No “cussin”, sex, or killin’ off the heroes. The bad guys took a beatin’ and deserved every bullet - even the axe. I will continue listening to McCauley’s books as long as you never drastically change your style and KEEP YOUR READER.

The, “fairytale”, “ride off into the sunset” ending.

Excellent story that kept my interest from start to finish. The narrator did a superb job. His voice is well suited for westerns. Accents and characters...top notch.

Very Enjoyable Listen

I was super happy to see that Terrence Macaulay had written another book! Even happier to see that J Rodney Turner read it! Mr. Turner has become an expert invoices over the years and his renditions are extremely well done. The one thing I did miss was what happened to the young man that rode the horse off to get help. I must’ve slept through that. I am particularly fond of this new hero Jeremiah. I have never been thrilled with people that hesitate to take out the bad guy. Sort of like women who hit or shoot the bad guy in the arm and then run away rather than stand there and unload the gun in his chest! Never understood those writers.

This book was a thrill a minute, interesting, and full of wonderful characters.

Riveting!!

It’s your typical Marshall vs Outlaws story but, they are fun to listen to and reminds you just how lawless this country really was back in the west. If you like historical fiction it’s a fun book.

I’m a big J. Rodney Turner fan

Great book! It is filled with all the old western glory one expects and is well written. I loved the narrator and follow books with his narrative ability to bring the book alive! The surprise of the story is the humor included in the story. This is a book and author worth a listen. Thank you. Much appreciated!
