Gone to Graveyards
Streak Wilson #2
Folks said Streak Wilson rode with the Devil, and they steered clear of him—but when something with a taste for human blood began stalking the woods, they needed the sharpest tracker and best shot in the county: Streak Wilson!
They said Streak Wilson made a deal with the Devil! Friends drifted away and neighbors steered clear. Until they needed him.
Something that ate human flesh had come into the woods. And the townsfolk looked for help from the sharpest tracker and best shot around: Streak Wilson!
Streak went into the woods to slay the beast. And the hunt went on, through a silent forest and into the dark, twisted corners of a man’s memory.
And Streak Wilson learned there was more than one monster in the woods!
AESOP’S TRAVELS
In the rough and lawless Dakota Territory, Charlie Greenfield rides out to seek revenge on the men who framed him for murder, accompanied by barkeep Beefy Beaumont and Aesop, an orphaned kid with a knack for sharp-shooting.
DAKOTA TERRITORY, 1889: In a vast expanse of weak law and rough justice, barkeeper Beefy Beaumont found a youngster sleeping behind his saloon. The kid was dirty, slow-witted, and half-wild, but Beefy cleaned him up, gave him a job, and named him Aesop.
Beefy’s friend Charlie Greenfield is framed by his father for the murder of his brother, and temporarily avoids the noose, thanks to his sometime lover, Maude Hubbard. Then, when armed men come for Charlie's head, Aesop astonishes them all with his sharp-shooting skill.
Now Charlie must go after the men who framed him, and Beefy has to go with him—and take the slow-witted Aesop along.
Their travels take them through attacks by renegade Indians and local bad men, hired killers, horse thieves and lynch mobs. But mostly the travels bring them to a knowledge of each other, and an understanding often painful to bear.

THE DEVIL & STREAK WILSON
Streak Wilson #1
A Cowboy in his teens makes a deal with the Devil and has to grow up with the consequences: Cursed cash, a stolen horse, and a killer with his face!
THE KID THEY CALLED STREAK WILSON had a way with a gun, and he was tired of being treated like a boy.
THE DEVIL DIDN’T SEEM LIKE A BAD SORT and he offered a deal for Streak to live his dreams without losing his soul.
Streak Wilson found himself framed as a horse thief, chased by bounty hunters, hounded by the Devil... And headed for a showdown with the deadliest killer in the territory— THE MAN THEY CALLED STREAK WILSON!
“A fantastic story (in both senses of the word) from a wicked storyteller. You can practically hear the bullets whistle through the air – and smell the brimstone.”
— Charles Ardai, founder/editor of Hard Case Crime
EASY DEATH
When an armored car heist goes off the rails in a blizzard, Eddie and Walter have to hustle to steal their loot back from the cops, rescue a female park ranger, and escape the mysterious Officer Drinnon.
"The clever plotting and touches of humor make this an excellent holiday crime caper for readers of hard-boiled mystery." - Library Journal
‘NADA
"A tale of gold and greed and doing the right thing. Mexican bandits, a harrowing desert journey, one heck of a gun battle, and a narrator who knows how to tell a tale about greed and loyalty. Highly recommended." - Bill Crider, POP CULTURE MAGAZINE
"If you're in the mood for a Gold Medal adventure novel, 'NADA delivers." - Dr George Kelley, Ph.D.
"Action, told as if the teller of the tale were in the same room with you." - Steve Lewis, MYSTERY*FILE
