This western by spur award winning author Wayne D. Overholser tells a story of the lives of two men who were put together through strange happenings but then fell apart with the search for there own dreams. This story highlights the thought that we sometimes do not really want what we are vigorously chasing. The story rings true to today’s world happenings in that if you do not sit back and view your own dreams with an eye of objectivity you may find yourself running down a path that gets your dreams but looses your life long humanity.
This story begins with the saving of a gunfighter’s life and ends with the death of a father saving his unrecognized son. The twists and turns in the story keeps a reader involved and pushes and pulls him threw the eighteen years the two men spent in close proximity.
I definitely enjoyed the book and the writer had me threw out the story. This western is an age-old situation where one man continues to grow but his friend is locked into a dream the will cause him to loose everything that he really did want. I recommend this book to all of you western readers.
