A Western Superhero
Young sisters Deb and Gwen, along with two small charges, wander in the wilderness as the only survivors after a wagon train attack. Mountain Man Trace Riley takes pity on them since he was orphaned, and left to fend for himself as a teenager, after a similar attack. Because they are still in danger, he takes them to his ramshackle home to protect them. The reader will laugh at the uncomfortable situations Trace and his ranch hands face having women and children suddenly intrude into their lives.
Trace is also in the midst of a dangerous cat and mouse game with murderous desperadoes and a mysterious person called The Guardian. Some say he can appear and disappear at will, but he always swoops down and helps wagon trains in distress.
With Deb’s prickly distrust of men, a legendary hero, and killer thugs this story will keep you on the edge of your seat. Add to the mix a sprinkle of romance, the Old West along with a dash of comedy–and you have a clean 5-star read from a Christian perspective that I highly recommend.
