Sobre IBD

This is the second in a 3-novel series featuring Dan Currie, a gambler turned business man in an 1870s gold mining town high in the Colorado Rockies. Currie had always considered himself a lucky man. He’d won a non-producing gold mine in a poker game and soon hit one of the biggest strikes in Colorado. He and his wife, Etta, now owned several mines, a bank, a hotel, and a large ranch with thousands of cattle. But Currie’s luck had suddenly turned bad. A huge explosion tore his highest producing gold mine apart. His bank was robbed. One of his young cowboys was brutally murdered when rustlers hit his ranch. Currie was shot off a cliff and nearly drowned. And now, someone had hired Sam Gash, a dangerous professional assassin to murder him. Lightening fast with a gun, Gash was also known to kill from ambush on occasion. One thing was certain. When Gash and Currie met, someone would surely die.
