New Mexico TerritorySandia Mountains 1826A Mountain Trapper rescues a baby boy found alive with his Indian mother, dying in the winter snow. She lives long enough to utter the infant's first name, TOBIE; then dies. Taken to San Felipe de Neri Catholic Church in Alburquerque, the baby is left to be placed in an Orphanage. It is here he remained until the age of eight. When on a cold stormy night, - his mind filled with boyish dreams - he runs; but his youthful reverie proved unfit for the rigors of nature, and he nearly dies. Found by a Ute Warrior, young Tobie is taken to his village and raised as family, until the age of 16; when fate again turns amiss. Wounded but believed dead during an attack by Army Soldiers he survives, while all others are killed. The village is left burning. Now at age 16, Tobie is left with one prospect, venture into a world filled with unknowns. The year 1842; a time in American history when the country is moving fast forward. Now, with great apprehension, he rides alone, into a strange and ill-defined world.
Autorenporträt
Many of the characters found within the 'Killing Blue Eyes' trilogy, come from a long run of real personalities. Several based-on men and women author A. Alex Come' met while serving in the US Marine Corp, US Navy, National Guard and Army Reserve. In addition, as a retired Career Firefighter and Paramedic, personalities and some actual events contribute to his triology. The psychology of Human behavior (especially interesting subject to Come'), plus historical events, and the often want, sometimes needed, journey into that terror, adrenalin packed part of the human brain we call the imagination goes anxious to be opened. Such are the 'Killing Blue Eyes' books; they chase the reader straight into dark realms of terror, leaving them with little more than small glimpses of light and hope; of Escape! Enjoy the Read!
