The characters drive this book. Bill is a young sheriff in a small town in western Kansas. From the beginning, you like him and his young wife. Buffalo hunters have killed more than a dozen Pawnee boys. The Indiands are out for revenge. There is also a good secondary storage. I was suprised that I liked it. There is substantial needless killing (but that may be the point, it was needless).

This is the second in the "Redemption" series by James Reasoner. We return to the town of Redemption, Kansas, where a former Texas cowboy named Bill Harvey has become Sheriff. This time Harvey faces off against outlaws and a group of Pawnee who have jumped the reservation. The town is caught in the middle. Good solid storytelling.

James Reasoner has become one of my favorite writers in just a few years. I've gotten to know him a bit from reading his blog regularly and swapping a few emails. He can always be relied on for a great read, whether it's one of his books or one where he works under a house name.
REDEMPTION: HUNTERS is the second book in his series of the small Kansas town and their new Marshall, former Texas cowhand Bill Harvey. A young man, he took up residence while recovering from a leg gore by an old steer and ended up marrying his nurse, Eden.
In this volume, word comes that a band of Pawnee have left the reservation and are on the warpath. The townspeople are nervous, rightly so, and things aren't helped when a band of buffalo hunters ride into town late one night one step ahead of the Pawnee after a scuffle that left a group of young males dead, one escaping to fetch the rest.
Bill has another problem. There's a murderer loose in town and he seems to be trying to incite something between the Pawnee and the town, to what end Bill doesn't know. And who that mystery person is.
A fine novel and a fine series. I look forward to more entries in this one.
