About this listen
US Deputy Marshal Earl Crawford had just entered the office after returning from a typically Texan assignment where bullets flew like dirt in a twister. He hadn’t even hung his hat when the boss approached him about an even more dangerous mission, but only if he chose to accept the job.
Normally, he wasn’t given the choice, but in this case, even though he could have turned it down, he knew that he had to go. He would have to return to East Texas to track down a killer who had brutally murdered a young woman and her young son. What made it impossible to turn down was that murderer had been the dead woman’s husband and father to the boy. He was also Earl's brother.

Then, he received a visitor with an unusual request. The stranger asked the ex-professor if he would tutor his frumpy but brilliant daughter in astronomy. Clay reluctantly agreed, but only if she proved to be an exceptional student. While the young girl surely proved to be both brilliant and frumpy, her arrival also brought with it many potentially deadly consequences that neither she nor her father realized.

Story
With her ranch on the line and three younger sisters to care for, Sunny Thornton is in no position to take on any more responsibility. But when she learns that the man who was paralyzed saving her life in a bank robbery isn't being cared for, she feels it's her duty to help him. She isn't moved by his attempts to push her away, nor does she care that he is an ex-con. As far as she's concerned, Ash has paid for his crimes. Plus, she can't deny the stirrings inside of her whenever he's near.

The loud roar snapped Mrs. Doyle from her sleep, and she quickly slid from her bedroll, stepped to the tents flap, and pulled it aside seeing a bear standing on its hind legs just a few feet from her. What made it more horrifying was what she didn't see. The camp behind the bear was empty. She dropped the flap and turned to her the frightened boy standing behind her. He looked at his equally terrified nanny unaware that they had been abandoned to die in the wilderness.

United States Marshal War Adams stared at the telegram in disbelief. His father had been murdered? As difficult as it was to come to grips with the news, it would become more disturbing when he discovered that the person arrested for the crime was the nurse that his father had hired to ease his suffering from his killing disease. Her position gave her both the means and opportunity to commit the crime, and he knew that the nurse was the same woman whose husband he had shot and killed years earlier, giving her the motive.

Private Jake Elliott was apprehensive as he walked to the commander’s office. He couldn’t think of a single transgression that would have attracted the major’s attention. When he left the command building 10 minutes later, he was still numbed by the short visit. Tomorrow, he would no longer be a cavalryman, but would be returning to the family ranch outside of Fort Benton in Montana Territory. But it was the reason he was being discharged before his enlistment expired that had been the biggest shock.

The war was ending for Captain Eugene Stewart. He and the rest of the 85th Illinois would soon be mustered out and he’d return home to Peoria. After he entered his tent, he found a thick envelope from his mother sitting on his cot. When he unfolded the pages, another envelope fell to the ground.

After reading his mother’s letter, he stared at the sealed envelope and thought about tossing it into the fire rather than reading it.

As Carl sat astride his roan gelding and stared at Pine Bluffs, he knew that his days of punching cattle were over. The long drives across the West were dying now that the railroads had crisscrossed the Plains. Ironically, his last formal education had given him the skills and knowledge to help build those railroads, and now he’d finally put them to use. His short-term plan of spending a quiet night or two in Pine Bluffs would soon be altered by a simmering man-made volcano in the mountains of central Wyoming at a mine that provided the coal for the railroad’s locomotives.

Legendary Lawman
I really enjoyed listening to Hopewell! What a man, son and lawman, Earl was! Being a US Marshall and chasing after outlaws is his job. When he’s told by his boss that his own brother had killed his wife and six year old son Earl knew that he had to be the one to bring Carl back to justice.
This is a substantial listening experience in the time it is to tell Earl and Jesse’s story. Although the ending made me sad it was needed to complete their story.
At first I wasn’t sure if the narrator had a deep enough voice but as I listened and found out what kind of man Earl was it made perfect sense! Bravo! Wonderful story! Clean! And interesting!

Very rambling
The narrator sounds like he was made to read westerns aloud, I give him 4 stars but see some room for improvement.
The story isn't bad, but you never really feel any tension or actual danger. The story just kind of moseys along at a steady pace. Its not a bad story, I don't think its one you'll listen to over and over again. Lots of potential here it just goes untapped.

I just finished my sixth book by CJ authored by Michael White. Again, 2 months ago I would have never listened to anything that was in the western genre. But these books are so much fun and I love them. I can't wait for the next one thank you guys again Diane

Decent western
For the majority of the story, it was an action packed western with a romance that went along very well with the actions. The ending, however, was pure romance. So sad that modern westerns had to focus so much on the roof romance instead of the action.

Get real. No U S Marshal is as calm, kind spoken or sweet as Petits Blue eyed Blonde characters. Same eyes, same silly dialog with his medical description of every bullet.

The story has been edited from the written version. Not sure why but it detracts from what should be a five star review.
Very disappointing.
