When one of their own goes on a murderous rampage and kidnaps an innocent woman, the Scout Trackers, a group of elite warriors tasked with special missions during the Geronimo campaigns, reunite and must brave a raging Montana wildfire to take down the enemy. Original.
I met Mark Henry last month and was fortunate to receive this book and his autograph! Mark is the real deal, he lives what he writes and is an amazing person. This book will not last you long, it is very hard to put down and the story flows so naturally that it is a shock when the last page is read! Support the new writers so we can have them in the future, the old ones aren't going to be around forever!
AN OUTSTANDING BOOK!!!!

It's 1910 and civilization has come to Montana with automobiles and telephones. But for Trap O'Shannon, his son Blake, Ky Roman and Clay Madsen, riding horse back is still the best way to travel in rough country. Trap, Clay and Ky used to ride together as Scout Trackers during the Geronimo campaign. Now the three along with Blake are once again back together. Roman is a US Marshall and has deputized Blake to help him ride after Lucius Feak and his murderous bunch to free Feak's captive Angela Kenworth. Since Blake is Indian and the kidnapping of Angela and murder of the rest of her party was made to look like Apaches were responsible, an Indian Marshall just might turn the situtation into a powder keg. To make matters worse, a wind driven fire storm consuming everything in it's path must be delt with by both killers and lawmen alike. A girls life is at stake and men on both sideswill die. Add to the mix a man from Trap's past shows up seeking revenge. HARD ROAD TO HEAVEN IS AN OUTSTANDING BOOK that has all the elements of a first rate story. First time author Mark Henry has created characters I would enjoy reading more about. DON'T MISS THIS 5 STAR BOOK-A HARD ROAD TO HEAVEN.
A Good Read

Mark Henry has written a first rate Western. I got envolved with the characters from the very start. I hurt when they hurt and worried when they worried. I hope that there are many more books about these people. I want to read about what they do next. I hope I don't have to wait too long before the next book comes out. I am a fan of Louis L'Amour books and I believe that this book rates at the top and will help make it's author just as popular. Henry's book seems much more realistic and acurate than most westerns. He describes people so that you feel you know them and have good reasons to either love or hate them. His description of the landscape, weather etc. is such that you can smell the smoke in the air and feel the sweat and grime on the skin of hard working firefighters. Yet, his descriptions never slow the action down. I highly reccomend the book,
