After reading book one a few months ago, I wasn't sure if I would want to read more in the series. Book two was better than book one and interesting enough to make me want to keep on reading. I'm not much of a fan of westerns or mysteries, but somehow this one was okay because it was all about the characters. They were set in a western and they had a mystery on their hands, but it felt like the focus was primarily on the people, and I cared about the people I was supposed to like.

This is book #2 in the Sam Keaton western series. It is hard to take a breather between each book.

Very good - much more realistic ending than the first one. I've started the third already.
