معلومات عن هذا الكتاب الإلكتروني
A gripping Western about two brothers on a westward journey of revenge, cutting a scorched path across the winter frontier—until the graves they're digging begin to look like their own
Arriving back on their Ohio farm after a trip, brothers Walter and Jed find their homestead torched and ruined, Ma and Pa and their sister, Sweet Mary, charred to ash. Their tremendous grief immediately turns to violence: they scoop up the ashy remains of their family in one of the only objects left on the farm, a tin kettle—and attaching the kettle to one of their horses, they head west to pick up the path of Spring Frog and Frank Booth, the leaders of a gang they know to be the cause of their great ruin.
What follows is an odyssey of the body and the soul. The violent path they carve will leave no one untouched, no bridge not burned. Alongside the beauty of the landscape in winter is the relentless grim reaper of their revenge. Each new location brings them opportunities to amend their ways, to seek a path different from the vengeful road they are on—and each time, the brothers turn away, to play out their vicious hand.
Elwood Reid’s first novel in over a decade is a bold and beautiful tale of the Old West and family secrets, a dazzling document of violence and history and human nature.
