• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Lassiter was bumming a ride on The Caprice Queen when a bunch of river pirates blew the riverboat out of the water and got away with a hundred thousand dollars in gold. He decided to make the dynamiters pay for the inconvenience, and a hundred thousand - the whole bundle - was the figure he decided on. Getting it wouldn't be easy, but in the end, Lassiter always got what he wanted.

Lassiter is totally amoral, totally unpredictable, more like a cougar than a man.
Sometimes he kills, sometimes he purrs, sometimes he does a little of both together. It all depends on his mood.
Lassiter doesn't know the meaning of good or evilhe just knows what he wants. And to get what he wants, he will lie, cheat, steal, and even kill without a morsel of regret.
Sometimes he's a hero, sometimes he's a villainwith Lassiter you can't ever be sure. You can't even be sure whether you're for him or against him. You can only be sure of one thing: if you read about Lassiter once, you'll want to read about him again and again.

Autorenporträt

Peter J. McCurtin was born in Ireland on 15 October 1929, and immigrated to America when he was in his early twenties. Records also confirm that, in 1958, McCurtin co-edited the short-lived (one issue) New York Review with William Atkins. By the early 1960s, he was co-owner of a bookstore in Ogunquit, Maine, and often spent his summers there. His westerns in particular are distinguished by unusual plots with neatly resolved conclusions, well-drawn secondary characters, regular bursts of action and tight, smooth writing. If you haven't already checked him out, you have quite a treat in store.
McCurtin also wrote under the name of Jack Slade and Gene Curry.
