Kinch Riley - Tapa blanda

"Matt Braun has a genius for taking real characters out of the Old West and giving them flesh-and-blood immediacy."--Dee Brown, author of "Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee" "Matt Braun is one of the best!"--Don Coldsmith, author of the Spanish Bit series "He tells it straight-- and he tells it well."--Jory Sherman, author of "Grass Kingdom"

The young drifter had a taste for life. The old gunfighter had a date with death. Their friendship led to a killing storm-- and a true legend of the frontier. He was young and hungry for life-- a scarecrow kid alone in a lawless land. Something about the boy named Kinch Riley made hardened railroad agent Mike McCluskie take him under his wing: show him how to fight and shoot and sample the bawdy wonders of a wide-open boomtown. But Kinch got too fast with a gun just as a band of Texas outlaws rode into the Kansas railhead of Newton. And for the first time in his life, McCluskie will walk into a battle he can't win-- because a boy's future is at stake, and so is a man's soul. Kinch Riley is Matt Braun's masterful retelling of a true Western mystery-- the Newton General Massacre of 1871-- when six men died in 90 seconds, a boy vanished into the plains, and a legend was born...
