Wrath: A Hard Man Novel
by Howard McEwen
Newly updated, edited and proofed second edition, December, 2020
William Goebel was a hard man born to a hard time. And politics is a hard business. Especially in 1890s Kentucky. He was a man unafraid to turn the Bluegrass blood red in his pursuit of power.
Wrath is the story of two men. The first, William Goebel, a Kentucky politician who turned his state into an armed camp. The second was a solitary mountain man, as hard as Goebel, who delivered the final act of retribution from the barrel of a musket.
“Murder, proverbial backstabbing, back-room deals, and some of the most corrupt political acts imaginable” - Amazon Review.
