Book Description
Bounty hunter Lou Prophet escorts a killer to be hanged—and himself into trouble in this western from Peter Brandvold. Lou Prophet is in mixed company these days. He doesn’t mind being close to his pretty pistol-packing partner, Louisa Bonaventure. Known as the Vengeance Queen, she has his back—and dare he say it, part of his heart. But accompanying the vile outlaw Blanco Metalious back to Nugget Town to see him hang isn’t exactly Lou’s idea of a good time… Then a young girl claiming amnesia after getting caught in the crossfire during Blanco’s capture joins their posse. But her ease on the trails belies her innocence. Before Prophet can deal with her, Sam “Man Killin’” Metalious enters the picture, aiming to free his son before he hangs. But no way is that going to happen under Prophet’s watch…

Saddle up for western action in this Lou Prophet, Bounty Hunter novel from Peter Brandvold. Lou Prophet loves to keep beautiful women company. But when the invitation comes from Miss Louisa Bonaventure, the Vengeance Queen, he finds himself intimate with hot lead instead of her warm female form.

While Lou and Louisa hunt for Lazzaro, they’ve got two gangs hot on their tail: vicious Mojaves hungry for white hides, and Mexican Rurales hungry for gold. They’re not sure who’s more of a threat, but decide to keep their enemies closer by riding with the Rurales. In a true case of the blind leading the blind, Lou Prophet prays that this pursuit ends with him on the right end of a smoking pistol...

And there is a good chance that Lucifer is about to be pushed off the throne. But Dante is getting really tired of being pushed around.

But then her good-for-nothing father steals a fortune from one of the most merciless shake hunters in town, and Willie is left on the hook for his debt. With two young hunters as guides, Willie sets out across the desert to find her father. And the desert holds more dangers than just shakes.
