Book Overview

Customer Reviews

An very good Western

M.A. Armen, a Hollywood screenwriter, has written a very good Western. Glint McClain returns to Arizona after fighting in the Union army. Young gunfighter, Hal Peters, shoots McClain and leaves him for dead. Father Miguel, a priest, finds McClain and nurses him back to health. To repay the debt, McClain agrees to help Miguel free the Indians of his parish from being enslaved by Bart Lathrop to work in the gold mine. There is mystery here, as well. Why do the Indians refer to Father Miguel as Father Diablo? Very entertaining and a quick read.
