Old Friends!
War-hardened, and tough, Mark along with Jonah come upon a woman in labor who tries to shoot them every time they come near! No one was more shocked or ill-prepared, than Mark, when he found he was being drug into helping deliver a baby. Despite the surprise, he did the deed, only to find the mother rejected the babe.
Because of that, Mark takes the child to a foundling home. Both he and the woman who answers the door are in for the shock of their lives. It turns out to be Katherine, who had rejected his marriage proposal ten years earlier. Lest you think the rest of the story is about how to get these star-crossed lovers back together, there is a whole lot more to this tale.
There are missing children, orphans that have secretly ridden the rails into town, and have been trying to eke out a life. Alone in the world, these children are being taken by the kiddy-snatchers.
Mark and Jonah make up half of the famous Hanger’s Horsemen. Well-known for fighting when the odds are against them, but succeeding none-the-less, they aim to find the person behind the snatchings. But they experience one dangerous situation after another. There are kidnappings, murder attempts, and times they are left for dead. Will the Hanger’s Horsemen fail this time?
Just when it seems all is lost, some surprises take place, including the unmasking of the one behind it. Mark and Jonah made their appearance in book one of this series, and it is fun to learn more about them. No worries, though, this tale can stand on its own.
I recommend this 5-star book to those who like clean, exciting stories told from a Christian viewpoint.
