Hell Hath No Fury

Description

From acclaimed storyteller Charles G. West, the Spur Award-winning adventure that first introduced the legend of John Hawk, an army scout with a tracker's eye, a cowboy's grit-and his own brand of justice . . . "Rarely has an author painted the great American West in strokes so bold, vivid, and true." -Ralph Compton To start their new life together, Jamie Pratt and his young bride join a westward wagon train bound for the Rocky Mountains. They get as far as Helena when their unscrupulous wagon master deserts them, leaving them as good as dead in a godforsaken, blood-scorched land. The other settlers agree to set stakes where they are, but Jamie and his bride press on toward the Bitterroot Valley, deep into Sioux territory. Jamie's brother, Monroe, enlists the legendary scout, John Hawk, to find them. A hardened veteran of the range, Hawk is living off the land in a little cabin on the Boulder River when Monroe comes begging for his help. To rescue Jamie and his bride, Hawk-and his guns-will come out fighting, riding fast and fierce into deadly odds. For any other man it's a suicide mission. For Hawk, delivering justice is what he was born to do . . . Winner of the 2018 Spur Award for Best Paperback Western

Praise for Charles G. West "West has created a strong, believable protagonist for what promises to be an exciting series...Hell Hath No Fury has it all--gunfights, Indians, rustlers, everything a fan of the traditional Western could want." -Roundup Magazine "Rarely has an author painted the great American West in strokes so bold, vivid, and true." -Ralph Compton "West's character studies are excellent; his plots move forward at pace and his action scenes put you right there amidst the flying lead and dust. Another of West's strengths is making his readers share the emotions of his characters and this is done particularly well in this book, especially when describing the turmoil Hawk feels that sets him out on his self-imposed mission." -Western Fiction Review on No Justice in Hell "A great series. Why do I like the book? (1) tells a good story which flows and is not contrived; (2) has a main character subject to make mistakes; (3) as I read, I like to predict what will happen next. This author puts some twists and turns which were certainly unexpected; (4) takes place in my favorite state, Montana (5) the book has given me some ideas I would like to investigate about early life in Montana. Buy it, read it, enjoy." -Rope Burns on No Justice in Hell "West, a fan favorite for over two decades, introduces his new John Hawk series." -True West on Hell Hath No Fury
