Another time, another place. A straightforward story of danger, death, and redemption, with maybe the chance of love in the end. ( )

Considine has led a life as an outlaw but has little to show for it. With some fellow outlaws, he plans to rob a bank in the town where a former friend is the law as well as married to the woman he had loved. While he distracts his friend, the rest of the party rob the bank.

During their ride to the Mexican border, they notice a party of Apaches are tracking an elderly man and his daughter. Even though they know a posse is following them, they decide to tackle the Apaches and save the man and his daughter.

Constant action as is typical of a L'Amour novel. ( )

A young man has crossed the line into the outlaw life but when he meets a special young lady his worldview shifts. Is it too late?

I like how L'Amour takes the standard Western plot and adds something more to make it better. I've not yet decided if this one goes to the used book store or stays on my shelves for a reread.

Note: this is a novel length retelling of the short story In Victorio's Country. ( )

“I think of myself in the oral tradition--as a troubadour, a village taleteller, the man in the shadows of the campfire. That’s the way I’d like to be remembered--as a storyteller. A good storyteller.” -Louis L’Amour
Well, Mr. L’Amour, that’s how I remember you. Every time I’ve picked up one of your books, I knew I was gonna get a good story--another time, another place to give me a break from my own little world. I wasn’t let down with this one, either. Some reviewers see this novel as a bit of a mediocre offering from you, and it may be, but I figure that a mediocre book by Louis L’Amour is better than most everyone else’s. We ride on.
