Amazing story
Old men and women are never old in their heart's. And very often their age and experience are more profoundly important that the ravages of time on their bodies.
This courageous hero deals as much with th enemy of his failing body as he does with the exterior enemies. A very good read.

Winkle with a wrinkle...
Author is to be complemented. A dirty of verbose padding, with a sprinkle of compassion, dedication, empathy, and , prominently... the ever real presence of the old fickle finger of fate. Your surprise ending (s)? A human-dinger!!
Thanks, Wink!!! You lived up to your promise. FDJ

Good story
Being from Oklahoma and growing up in Arkansas, I knew the area around Mena and the feelings that use to exist toward indians. A good reading story, but the justification for the scenario a real stretch for a personal vendetta.

An engrossing story.
A one sitting read. The story definitely grabs you and doesn't let go for a minute. There are none of the usual lulls in the intensity of the chase and a huge twist that is completely unexpected.

Before he can leave the ranch, one of his hired hands Jed, stops him as he wants to go along. After a long talk the two head out. What will happen? Will the ex Marshal find them? What will the body count be?
I loved this western read the characters pop and the story line keeps you reading till the end. I had a hard time putting this book down. There are some amazing secrets in the story along with some fantastic twists. I was totally wrong in who set the plan up to take out Micah. Wayne does an excellent job with the story, the knowledge, and the characters so much so you don't want the book to end.
One of my favorite characters was Jed. An innocent young man who feels as Addie is his little sister and Micah as his father and wants to help get her back. He learns a lot along the way and turns out to be a strong man. There are some funny scenes with Jed.
I do hope there will be more westerns like this from Wayne. He has a fan in me.

I was sincerely impressed with this story, and although this is the first story I have read by Mr. Winkle, it most definitely will not be the last. I was definitely impressed with the storyline, as well as the impressive characters.
Definitely worthy of the five stars I awarded the novel and I have no problem recommending this novel to those of you who appreciate real life western escapades. This story is very heartwarming and has enough mystery to enhance the many exciting escapades happening along the way.
Do yourself a special favor and read the book, as I am quiet sure you will be as impressed as I most definitely was.

Too much !
Good writing good story line in this book however he complicated the story with the Thea and Rachel twist. It really hurt a good book. Mr. Winkle needs to use simplicity. The last twist ruined a potentially good book.
