Now in paperback! The Kid is the quickest draw in the West. Little does anyone know he isn’t real.
A fast-paced, cleverly woven, witty Western adventure we reckon readers won''t be able to put down, perfect for ages 10 and up.
It''s 1881 in Destiny, Colorado. Fourteen-year-old Henry Upton’s parents have died, and he’s trying to keep his three younger brothers together on the farm. Henry writes a story about The Kid, the fastest draw in the West, to keep people away from their parts. But his stories will soon put more than his family and the farm at risk.
Meanwhile, Herbert might lose his job as an editor at Gunslinger Magazine in Philadelphia if he can''t find out why the author of The Kid stories recently stopped sending them. The soft city slicker is headed out west to find the author.
And Snake-Eye Sam has set his sights on The Kid, whom he thinks is real. Sam has evil in his heart and jealousy in his veins. Breaking out of prison to shoot down The Kid is about the only thing that can cure the itch running down Sam''s spine.
Three storylines—plus Gunslinger Magazine‘s The Kid stories—intertwine and come together just as Snake Eye Sam and Herbert both arrive in Destiny. On Main Street at high noon, a master plan is put in place at the same time that Henry and the Destiny sheriff get what they need to keep the Upton brothers together.
Pull up for a tall frothy glass of sarsaparilla and enjoy this engaging and satisfying Western tale, full of quirky characters, snappy dialogue, and heart.
