Montana Territory yielded few second chances. And it was no different for Sett Foster. He'd barely escaped the hangman''s rope--but not ten years in jail and another 4 wandering the country in an outlaw's exile. Then came the day he decided to go home . . . It was Sett Foster's reputation as "The Boy Outlaw" that killed his family. But he's been paying for the last fourteen years--now it's time to make somebody else pay. The murderers are still in town, looking for the gold rumored to be hidden on the Fosters' Montana homestead. They think they're immune from the law, They don't know that Settler's ready to deal them his own brand of justice.
Settler Paul Foster was a thirteen year old who recklessly became involved in a robbery and is sentenced to prison instead of the hangman's noose. After serving his time he tries to go home and find what's left of his family, and finds them all dead and someone else is living in his family homestead.
I read Settlers Chase first and this was the original story of Sett and Ria. Well written western with good characters that leave you wanting to read more about them.
I loved the story and found the characters believable and the descriptions excellent. However, some bad editing and misspelled words--two for too and loose for lose--took me right out of it at times. Other readers may not be quite so bothered by this and I do think it well worth reading.
