An Exciting New Marshal Ezra Flint Western Adventure by Award-Winning Author Scott McCrea! Marshal Ezra Flint and his deputy, P.J. Dunn, discover a burnt-out trading post in the middle of drought-ravaged territory. Everyone is dead except for a young Indian boy, no more than ten years old, wandering alone and bloodied. Flint vows vengeance when he realizes the boy’s tongue has been brutally cut out. Unable to speak, the child leads the lawmen to Paradise, a drought-crippled town controlled by a fanatic preacher and his two blood-simple sons. The preacher promises that the drought will end once he weeds out sin… and identifies Flint and Dunn as agents of the Devil! “…hard to put down. If you like good Western fiction, you will love this book.” – Roundup Magazine review of Hard as Flint
Author
I write adventure novels, thrillers and westerns. I am a Western Writers of America Spur Finalist for my novel, Tales of Tom Mix: The Wild West Christmas. My books are founded on the notion that the world is full of adventure—you can find it everywhere and anywhere. I want you to enjoy reading them as much as I enjoy writing them. I always wanted to be a writer. When I was in first grade I was already writing stories of vampires and monsters; by fifth grade I had graduated to spy heroes and assorted adventurers. Then came the westerns. I ended up becoming a professional writer of public relations materials, mostly for the medical industry. Let me tell you, nothing is more soul-crushing than writing about urge urinary incontinence when you want to be writing about dangerous men and even more dangerous adversaries. I’ve written a few nonfiction books over the years, but my daydreams just got bigger and bigger. I wanted an imaginative landscape similar to all the craziness going-on inside my head, so I moved to fiction. I wrote many (many!) books until I finally had my first success with both the Tales of Tom Mix and Bradigan’s Mountain series. My Jess Galleon Adventures are designed to generate the thrills I felt reading the great adventure stories of my boyhood. I hope you enjoy my books and keep reading. You can always reach me through my Web site or on social media; I would love to hear from you. # # #
