About this audiobook
The bestselling Johnstones kick off their blazing new Western series with a real bang—a fatal, fateful shootout that
sends a man named Buck Trammel on the ride of his life …
When Wyatt Earp Tells You to Run, You Run.
Once upon a time in the Old West, Buck Trammel was a Pinkerton agent with a promising future. But after a
tragic incident in a case gone wrong, he struck out for the wide-open spaces of Wichita, Kansas. Working as a bouncer
at The Gilded Lily Saloon, he hopes to stay out of trouble. But soon enough, his gun skills are put to the test. The
Bower gang shows up, turning a friendly card game with a Wyoming cattle baron into a killer-takes-all shooting
match. Buck saves the cattle baron’s life, but at the cost of two Bower men. That’s when Deputy Wyatt Earp arrives.
He warns Buck that he’d better get out of town, pronto, and take the cattle baron with him. The rest is history—if he
lives long enough to tell it …
This is the story of Buck Trammel. Hunted by outlaws. Fighting for justice. Marked for death. This is how legends
are born …

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I gave it a five ratingGreat book you should read it
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Title: North of LaramieAuthor: William W. Johnstone and J. A. JohnstonePages: 368Year: 2020Publisher: PinnacleMy rating: 5 out of 5 stars.Here is a new character and a new series from the pen of Johnstone, and it is worth reading! Buck Trammel is an interesting leading character whose past is slowly revealed as readers turn pages. Buck was once a Pinkerton man, now he finds himself a bouncer in a western town. From there, the action ramps up when he is forced to leave town and be on the run with the town drunk. What is quickly apparent is Buck isn’t well prepared to be on the run. He knows nothing about watching his trail nor does he have a sense of direction. But what Buck can do is fight bare handed with a Winchester or the Colt at his side. The drunk turns out to be someone no one knew, and he is better adept at keeping himself and Buck alive until they reach Blackstone, Wyoming. From that point, we learn who the real man is behind his former drunken ways and we see Buck emerge as a fighter for justice but never without someone trying to shoot at him, especially when he becomes the Sherriff of Blackstone. In a unique and gripping way, the new western series, Buck Trammel, is unlike other western tales. Sure, there is gun smoke in the air, the undesirable components of town life and more. However, Buck has an Eastern way about him not to mention his size always set him apart from other men in town. He befriends the drunk on the trail as they run for their lives, but the drunk named Adam isn’t someone to fully trust even when he is sober.The ending leaves open some romantic possibilities for Buck, and I can’t wait to see how this character develops and what happens between him and Adam in the future. No two friends could be more different, and their friendship is precarious as they travel different paths and make vastly different choices. So, grab a copy and enjoy the newest series that expands the Johnstone fictional universe. You will be entertained and engrossed in the pages for hours!Note: The opinions shared in this review are solely my responsibility.
