Publisher Description
He’s making news with his fists, his gun…and the ladies. The San Francisco Sun’s freelance field stringer Stuart “Stringer” MacKail needs a new story to sell to pay the bills. His editor sends him back to MacKail’s home town in Calaveras County for an update on an old legend about a stagecoach robbery by “Sulky Jack” and its missing treasure. Stringer’s feet barely hit the ground when the bullets begin flying and it quickly becomes clear that folks are still trying to find the treasure and will stop anyone who gets in their way. Dead bodies, hard drinking and friendly women abound, and it’s up to Stringer to uncover whatever truth may exist to get the story written and get himself back to Frisco in once piece.
Customer Reviews
Entertaining series!
Stringer is a man's man - and a journalist or a "stringer," thus his nickname. He's quick with his gun when he needs to be, but doesn't invite trouble, and he seems to have a second sense for danger. He's pretty good at solving puzzles for his newspaper stories and people just naturally gravitate toward him (if they aren't the ones trying to kill him, that is). He also has an amazing abilitly to woo the women - or more accurately, just bring home the women throwing themselves at him. Most entertaining and some hilarious dialogue. Good stuff, and I'm definitely going to read more of these in the series.
