About this listen

I wasn’t a woman who ever saw herself like this, the sheriff’s badge hanging heavy over my heart. I didn’t want to wear the damn thing, but all the men feared putting it on. I hoped the silver star would lead me to a day of reckoning, despite the nightmare it would bring. Because sooner or later the man I’ve been waiting for would return. And that would be a dark day indeed.

But I needed to stop the visions that visited me. To silence the voice in my head. There was no trusting the stories I had heard, and I refused to believe there was such a thing as a man who couldn’t be killed. Yeah, Hennessy was coming. And he’d pay for what he’d done. I longed for that day. I longed for . . . today.

As an audiobook aficionado, I was duly impressed by the story and performance of Boucvalt's latest work. Without dropping any spoilers, I will say that the author plays on very human themes of loss, anger, revenge, fear, and love, each in a multifaceted, nuanced treatment of the internal struggle that human emotion entails. Brett moves seamlessly from narration to dialogue, Gerson's priest is phenomenal, creating a very real, vivid, mental image of the character, and Boucvalt's own reading shows substantial range - mysterious, entrancing, charming, smarmy, sympathetic, horrifying, and, above all, authentic, It was enjoyable, exciting, and thought-provoking. I felt like I was attending a top-notch live performance, as the actors deftly bring the characters to life; at times I forgot that it was audio only!

I loved the story, performances were excellent. I found myself wanting the story to be longer just because I loved the world they created.

intriguing story and very well produced

Drops you right into the action and keeps slowly unraveling the mysteries to keep you guessing. Very dialogue driven, making for a great propulsive energy, and the narrators do a brilliant job with it.

Tight exciting Western
