The Old Wolves

Rusty Spurr #2

by Peter Brandvold

In this Rusty Spurr novel from Peter Brandvold, Spurr Morgan is ready to retire…but only after one last job. Deputy U.S. Marshal Spurr Morgan’s ticker isn’t what it used to be. After Spurr suffers a heart attack on the job, the Chief Marshal convinces him it’s time to step down. Unwilling to go out on a sour note, Spurr asks for one last assignment. The Chief sends him to bring a prisoner back to Denver from the Medicine Bow Mountains. The mission seems routine for an old hand like Spurr, until he discovers that the criminal in question is his old nemesis, Boomer Drago—the former lawman turned train robber that Spurr’s been trying to run down for years. Now, with Drago’s gang on his trail and a young girl named Greta needing help out of the mountains, Spurr is ready to face his dangerous final job and prove that even old wolves still have a mean bite…

Reviews

[Rick Farlee]

Old Spur Morgan eases the pain of a weak heart by taking a cocktail of whiskey and a nitroglycerin tablet... His final assignment is to transfer an outlaw to another town for trial... Unexpectedly, he goes on a wild romp through the Rockies that involves an old friend who turned outlaw, a prostitute, a whole bunch of ruthless outlaws... and even a grizzly bear. This book is very humorous at times because of the banter between Spur and Boomer Drago, much like the storyline of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Overall a great western and highly RECOMMENDED.

[Farhana Faruq]

This is the second book in a two book series. It's as good as the first. This one is about old Morgan Spurr on his last assignment as a marshal before he hands in his badge. The first book had more action but both are an awesome read.

Look forward to reading more by Brandvold. I absolutely love the way he writes, right to the point and every page is interesting.
