Synopsis
You don’t rip a cowboy off and walk away—A rip-roaring Western adventure from the Spur Award winner and “heir to the Louis L’Amour legacy” (Booklist).Johnny Fristo and Speck Quitman, young, hard-working cowboys from Fort Concho, Texas, have worked six months—at $20 a month—on the Devil’s River. Their boss, a hawk-faced cow trader named Larramore, reneges on the money he owes the boys and sneaks out of the cow camp and heads for San Angelo.Fristo is tall and thin, his mind a hundred miles away; Quitman is short, bandy-legged, and “bedazzled by the flash of cards and the slosh of whiskey.” The two are as different as sun and moon but are inseparable—and now they have a mission: find Larramore and extract the money he owes them.“One thing is certain: as long as there are writers as skillful as Elmer Kelton, Western literature will never die.” —True West Magazine
