Jess Williams #92
Devil or Angel
Jess’s next hunt leads him to the town of Buckner, Texas, where he meets a town marshal who is still grieving the loss of his wife. The marshal has turned to whiskey to drown his sorrows and finds himself in trouble, not able to perform his duties.
Feeling sorry for the marshal, Jess helps him out, trying to capture the men who committed a jailbreak in town. Jess has to deal with the marshal’s addiction as well as try to make sure it doesn’t get them both killed.
After a successful hunt, they return to Buckner, where Jess is faced with yet another man who wants him dead. The way the gunfight unfolds leaves Jess second-guessing his mission in life, which puts him in the most vulnerable position he’s ever been in.

Better than many of the Jess Williams stories. Jess begins to have doubts about his mission in life and walks around a small town without his weapons for s short period of time. He also helps get a town marshal' life back on track after the death of his wife. Then there's the humoir involved with the five outlaws and the town trying to make them believe it's home of the devil.

A RJT. Texas Western Action Adventure (AJWWB - 92)
RJT. has penned a Texas western action adventure titled, "Devil or Angel" which begins with JW in A gunfight he does not want, but the man pushes the gunfight and JW draws and kills him only to find the mans gun was unloaded. The man committed suicide by proxy. JW. takes his guns off for a few weeks before realizing he was on the wrong path with his thought process. This is an excellent read for the genre.....DEHS

Great Westminster story from Robert J. Thomas that will keep you reading until the end.
I have read all of the Jess Williams series, all ninety two. If you start with book number one you will read all of them. This series is additive causing you to put everything else down while reading the complete book..

I put Robert J Thomas right up there with Louis L'Amour and William W Johnstone. To Me Three Great Writers.
I have read all of Louise's, and Thomas's. I have tried to stay up with Williams and have read most of his series.

One of the best
One of the Best Stories yet. More insight into Jess the man. You see how he could love being a regular man and settle down. In the end he know what his mission in life is.

Great read
I enjoyed this book because it had Jess Williams doubting himself. And how that situation can change one's mind. Great read.

Not sure if a self doubting, introspective Jess is my cup of tea. Though it only lasted two weeks. I'm more a fan of cold blooded killer Jess. So a soft 3 it is.

Great twist
It’s a Jess Williams we haven’t seen before. It had a twist and is one of the best so far.
