Reviews

[Andrew Pender-Smith · Rating 4 out of 5]

Though this book was rather slow to get going, it made up for it as the story progressed. In an action adventure tale of courage and fortitude, Reilly Meyers, the man who is 'pushed too far', comes back with a vengeance almost unknown in the frontier town and surrounds in which he lives. In fighting to take back what is his, he also solves an ongoing mystery and becomes a hero in the process. Worth reading.
