It is November and just about
everyone knows the silver vein is played out in the mountains at this point.
The town of Silver Gulch is barely hanging on in the form of a few ramshackle
buildings and some tents. The few stragglers left in town have nowhere else to
go and no way to get there so they
hang on doing the best they can in desperate
times. While the silver is gone the gulch the place was named for is still
present as is a man known as Lobo Ames. Deputy U.S. Marshal Cash Laramie
intends to find him, take him into custody, and return him to jail where he
belongs.
To do that, not only will he have to
contend with some of the town’s people in a town that has no law enforcement of
any kind, he will have to deal with the worsening weather as winter storms are on
the way. Manhunter’s Mountain will extract a heavy price before all is
said and done in this terrific novel from author Wayne D. Dundee.
Like the other tales in the series,
the read features complicated characters, a mystery or two in a western
setting, and plenty of action to keep the story moving right along. It is
another good one in a great series and well worth your time. Manhunter’s
Mountain is billed as book 4 of the Cash Laramie and Gideon Miles
series, but can be read first if you are new to the series. If you
prefer to read in order start with the short story collection titled, Adventures
of Cash Laramie and Gideon Miles.

This is one of those cases where I am not sure if the publisher
sent it to me or I bought it using funds in my Amazon associate account. Either
is possible, but I suspect the publisher sent in my way for my use in an
objective review.
