The Downfall of a Treacherous Enemy: A Historical Western Adventure Book
by Henry McConley
Harvey Cook is a mighty bounty hunter who has made it his life's mission to bring the outlaws to justice, no matter what it takes. He is hired along with his partner to escort the criminal Micky McGhee to prison, but his investigation leads him down a dangerous path he never expected. When a disastrous altercation with Micky will leave his partner terribly injured, Harvey will be forced to go on an epic journey that will test his mettle at every turn. While his first priority will be getting his partner to a doctor before he dies, he won't stop until he takes Micky to the man who hired him. As the danger spirals out of control, how far will he be willing to go in order to reach justice?
When Harvey comes clean to his employer about Micky's escape, he offers to hire a team to help him continue the search. Angry at himself, Harvey won't tolerate failure until his mission is complete. His world turns upside down, though, when he meets Penelope, his employer's daughter, who will captivate him instantly with her unique wit. Even though a relationship is the last thing on his mind, Harvey will soon find himself worrying about his life without Penelope but he will not give up the hunt that easily. Will Harvey manage to capture the gang members before it's too late or will he eventually lose his only chance at love?
Harvey and Penelope will form a strong connection while they realize how much they are alike. Even though they lead completely different lives, they will find encouragement in the tentative trust that grows between them, but whether it can withstand the looming danger is far from certain. As they work together for a common cause, will the new lives they seek for themselves include love, or will justice take a back seat to evil?
