About this audiobook
Cash McLendon faces stone-cold enforcer Killer Boots in an Old West showdown, in New York Times-bestselling author Jeff Guinn's riveting follow-up to Buffalo Trail. Cash McLendon, reluctant hero of the epic Indian battle at Adobe Walls, has journeyed to Mountain View in the Arizona Territory with one goal: to convince Gabrielle Tirrito that he's a changed man and win her back from schoolteacher Joe Saint. As they're about to depart by stage for their new life in San Francisco, Gabrielle is kidnapped by enforcer Killer Boots, who is working on orders from crooked St. Louis businessman Rupert Douglass. Cash, once married to Douglass's troubled daughter, fled the city when she died of accidental overdose-and Douglass vowed he'd track Cash down and make him pay. Now McLendon, accompanied by Joe Saint and Major Mulkins, hits the trail in pursuit of Gabrielle and Killer Boots, hoping to make a trade before it's too late.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Silver City by Jeff Guinn is the final book in a western trilogy. During all three books, the main character, Cash McLendon has been on the run from the brutal Killer Boots Brautigan who has been set in his trail in order to capture him and return him to his ex-father-in-law who holds him responsible for the death of his daughter. In this book we have the final confrontation. With the author’s fine eye for authentic detail, he includes both Ike Clanton and Geronimo into the story and gives the readers an exciting chase through the Arizona desert. I enjoyed all three of these western novels but would have to say that I found this last one the weakest. The story didn’t have the depth or scope of the other two books, it was predictable so didn’t pull me in as the other two did. I would definitely recommend this trilogy, but as they are basically one continuous story, suggest one definitely reads them in order.
