Author: William W. Johnstone & J. A. Johnstone
ISBN: 9780786019564
Pages: 352
Year: 2010
Publisher: Pinnacle
My rating: 5 out of 5 stars.
A captivating tale that brings two of the Johnstone characters Bo Creel and Scratch Morton into a very mysterious tale. Bo and Scratch are looking for a town to stop in and pick up supplies. They aren’t sure what is going on when they ride into a town and not a soul comes out to greet or stare at them. There are no cooking fires but there is one man who comes to them yelling for them to leave! Bo and Scratch can’t do that, not because of what isn’t happening around them but because this man needs help. Why? He claims to see children and he is scared out of his wits!
Bo and Scratch begin to take care of the man when strangers come out of nowhere with pistols pointing at them and they aren’t little kids! The mystery deepens when Bo, Scratch and the stranger hear the kids but cannot see them. It sure sounds like ghosts but is it? Plus, with Bo and Scratch caught without any way to defend themselves but they figure they might as well go out fighting. What happens next brings an entertaining climactic conclusion to this tale.
Fans of Johnstone westerns or the two male characters know that you don’t want to bypass this tale!
