Daniel Boyd by James Leonard is an interesting fiction work that introduces the “Southwest Saga.”
Daniel Boyd had left El Cota his home hoping to find fortune but all he is interested in now is revenge.
The last time the man was with his family was seven years earlier just before his father died in the war.
When his sister sent him a letter informing him that his mother had been the victim of a gruesome murder, he knew he had to head home.
A man named Zachariah Truett who is a known criminal who waits for people to kill and rob is believed to be responsible for the murder.
Daniel thinks that if Truett and his crew can terrorize the innocent of El Cotas then he will have to stalk the guilty.
He becomes determined to take them out with nothing but his courage and a gun. But then he meets a woman named Amelia who has also been a victim of Zachariah’s brutality.
He wants to take her with him since El Cotas is a dangerous place with Zachariah not letting up. The only thing that could stop him is when he is dead and Daniel pries the gun from his dead cold hands.
“Untamed” by Daniel Boyd is the story of Nathan Pace, a lawman that was considering retirement until the Thrasher brothers made him change his mind.
One moment he was on the train talking to a pretty girl and the next they found themselves surrounded by Brent Thrasher’s men off the tracks.
When the smoke clears his brother and mother are dead and by the time they meet again, Nathan is not alone.
He is now working with a beautiful woman named Sarah Meade who is looking for revenge against Brent Thrasher.
They work together to hunt the evil brothers but this is not going to be a straightforward or easy task.
The Thrashers lead a gang of men who will do anything they ask of them. However, Sarah and Nathan are not scared but they do not have time on their side.
In recent weeks, the lives of other people have also been put on the line in adition to theirs. The Thrashers leave behind a trail of fear in every town they visit.
But Nathan is not afraid of death but he does not want to go before he has completed his mission.
Daniel Boyd’s novel “Reprisal” is the story of Samuel Lake, a reformed outlaw who is not much of a people person.
What he really desires is to leave his past and his guns in the past. At the opening of the novel, he stood pensively at the door of the chapel as some bleeding outlaw was dragged inside.
Ever since he became a reformed person he just wants to keep out of trouble and mind his saloon. But then he met Elizabeth Stanford who had barely survived when her ranch was attacked by William Decker, a notorious rustler.
All she is looking for now is justice and she believes that Samuel Lake is the man to get it for her. She intends to hire the man to track down the rustler for justice or what some other people might refer to as revenge.
Samuel is not interested in either justice or revenge but he just cannot say no to a woman in danger who is all alone.
Things get very interesting when Decker makes things personal which now means Elizabeth is among several people that are seeking justice.
Decker will not rest as he is determined to get what he wants and it is up to Samuel to stop the terrorist and prove he is a reformed man.
