The Mountain Man series established William W. Johnstone as one of the most heralded writers ever to pen tales of the Old West. A gritty, thrilling yarn, Deadly Trail both continues and expands on the proud tradition of Johnstone’s beloved Westerns. Following in the footsteps of his adoptive father Smoke, Matt Jensen has big boots to fill. But Matt’s never been one to shy away from a confrontation, and the last mountain man shows his mettle when he halts a train robbery in Colorado. Now a band of outlaws is none too pleased that Smoke’s son is taking up the reigns from his legendary father—and the stage is set for a deadly confrontation in the town of Braggadocio. Fans of classic Western tales find all the action they can handle in Deadly Trail. A two-fisted reading from narrator Jack Garrett goes down smooth as a belt of whiskey after a long, hot day riding the range.
