About this listen
Most of the successful private prospectors who’d struck it rich during the California and Nevada gold rushes during the mid- to late-1800s, had journeyed westward with a specific plan from which they never deviated. Upon achieving their pre-defined goals, they packed up and returned to their original homes in distant regions of the United States. There were also plenty of others, who’d been unable to pull the plug after striking it rich, believing their lucky streak to be a never-ending one.
Time and again, history had repeated itself by sending individual fortunes spiraling into the clouds before lady luck abandoned them and reality brought them crashing back to earth, broken beyond repair. Many such prospectors departed the region with their tails tucked between their legs, wishing they’d left while their bank accounts were still filled to overflowing.
Others remained and turned to more dubious means of acquiring riches, namely, stealing it from those who’d earned it by the sweat of their brows. For the cost of a single 45-caliber bullet, fortunes could be gained and lost in the blink of an eye, and from the moment a prospector discovered that first enticing nugget, the clock began to tick.
Oliver had both a plan, and a compelling reason to stick to it, and after five years and an accumulated five-hundred-thousand dollars' worth of silver and gold in his treasure chest, the time had come for him to cash out and return to Boston. However, fate had other plans for him.
When faced with the choice of leaving Virginia City, Nevada on his own terms, or answering the plea of a recently orphaned child, Oliver’s plans are set aside, and for a young girl in desperate need of a guardian angel, Oliver would become one.

In his haste to escape a scalding death, the engine operator panicked and fell. Dylan lifted his heavy shovel as high as his 12-year-old arms could manage and swung at the thundering machine. It could've killed him, but he had to try. As the shovel’s steel head slammed into the machine, it set in motion a series of events that would shape his entire life.

The judge made him a Deputy United State Marshal, then sent his new deputy after the worst-of-the-worst outlaws the Indian territory had to offer, with the orders not to burden the court by bringing them back for trial. Now, rumor has it that whenever outlaws gather around a campfire, the word is: "The only thing worse than standing before the Hanging Judge is hearing that Johnny Shooter is on your trail!"

He's the one who got away. The cowboy who claimed Natalie Haskell's heart before taking off on a tour of duty, planning never to return. But Beau Tyler is back, and she feels defenseless against the powerful pull of the brawny soldier. Especially when, suddenly widowed, she needs the shelter of his strong arms. Natalie's the girl Beau left behind but never forgot, despite his battle-scarred soul. And now she's the real reason he's staying on at the ranch.

When you’re 11 years old, it’s tough convincing people to take you seriously. When you’re an 11-year-old savant, It’s exponentially more difficult. Since Jake’s inability to connect with others had made him somewhat of an outcast for most of his life, he’d learned to divert his energy into his artistic talent, creating mesmerizing images capable of literally paralyzing anyone who should gaze upon them.

Great First Book in the Series
This first book in the Marshal Blackstone series draws you in quickly and you need to hang on for the ride of your life. Starts off with an unassuming man looking to head back east after making his fortune in gold unable to overlook a little girl whose parents had just been murdered. He offers to escort her back east to her relatives, but fate has a way of interfering in life.
Excellent narration by Tom Lennon.

Great!
This is a wonderful story. It is about choices between the good and bad or love. It hit all three of them. I loved it. Tom did a fantastic job narrating it. His voice was perfect.

Heartwarming Tale of Family Bonds
This author never disappoints! Each book has been an absolute delight, and this one is no exception. The characters are truly loveable—especially little Mia, who’s seven (almost eight!) and full of adorable charm. Oliver, Mia, and Sarah together brought such warmth to the story. The narrator was spot-on and added so much personality to every scene. I enjoyed every bit of it!

Two Stories and Both Are Amazing
After listening to this book until the final chapter, I was truly amazed and believe it to be one of the greatest westerns I have ever read or listened to. However, after the epilogue and the message from the author, a second story is revealed that vaults the first one into an entirely new dimension. How McFarland managed to keep the big reveal in the epilogue from spilling into the first 24 chapters while making the book an unequivocal masterpiece even without it was truly the sign of a master storyteller. You don't even know that there is a second story until you read the epilogue, and then your head and heart virtually explode! Tom Lennon does a great job with the authentic style of the narration, giving the story even more depth, if that's even possible. It was a great read from start to finish, with the epilogue and the message from the author being essential to understanding the rest of the story.

Amazing!!
This was a captivating story that I was quickly drawn in to. How can you not root for Mia amd Oliver!!?? Oliver was a selfless man with great integrity and tenacity. I was invested in the characters and their outcomes. It offers such a heartwarming ending. I look forward to more. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest opinion. The narrator did an excellent job bringing the characters and story to life.

Enjoyable
Am very picky about any western story I listen to or dead but this one kept me captivated throughout the story. Oliver, a Marshall though others do not know that, had just finished digging for gold and one his way out of the town found himself protecting a young girl from men his knew by the way they were acting, would kill the child as he later find out they did with her parents. His mission was to take her back East, to an uncle she has but never met before. The story will surely keep you listening or reading so you can find out what will happen next and you will not be disappointed in my opinion :)
