A Week From Never

De: William W. Johnstone, J.A. Johnstone

Narrado por: Danny Campbell

From the bestselling Johnstones comes the latest adventure in the wild life of Cullen Murphy, a West Texas legend-in-the-making, with big dreams, fast guns, and whose word is the law.

BREAK MURPHY'S LAW, FACE MURPHY'S WRATH.

Life is hard in the Old West—but so is Cullen Murphy. Orphaned as a child, he drifted from town to town across a merciless frontier, taking any job he could. Ranch hand, cattle driver, Confederate soldier. Whatever it took, he was up for the task. But when the Civil War ended, Murphy was ready to settle down and start his own ranch in Newtown, Texas, a beautiful but untamed stretch of land with no marshal, no jailhouse—and no defense against trigger-happy lowlifes.

As rumors spread about a sittin' duck of a town in that godforsaken corner of the West, every stripe of lawless miscreant comes crawling out of the Panhandle. Like Spade Atkins, a degenerate gambler and gunslinger ready to bet his life away. Or a gang of outlaws itching for mayhem, with money to burn. Holed up three miles outside of town, it won't be long before they come riding through. But Cullen Murphy is not one to stand down.

High noon or last call, it's time for the deadly justice of Murphy's Law.

Much better

This was considerably better than the first one. It felt like a "new" story and not like a rehashed Perly Gates/Will Tanner novel.

Not my favorite

I have read nearly everything that William Johnstone and J A Johnstone have written. I enjoyed this book, but it was not my favorite.
