About this ebook

Before the Civil War winds to an end, Lieutenant David Wharram rides west to begin a new life and eventually reaches Laramie, Wyoming. With saloons and brothels as the town’s thriving businesses, the setting is ripe for a soldier looking to get lost after the war.
Wharram is hired as a deputy town Marshall and finds companionship in a pair of ex-Union soldiers from Indiana who fought at Gettysburg. Early on in the story he displays his superb marksmanship and fighting abilities. His comrades and the Marshall quickly learn of his amazing talents of observation and deduction, a talent he later uses to unravel the mystery surrounding the murder of the Marshall's wife..
In Laramie, Don Stoddard's second novel, the author exhibits an exceptional ability to write in multiple genres. This brilliant tale, reminiscent of Louis L’Amour novels, weaves an exciting mystery with humor, old west gunfights and heartwarming romance.

Author

Don Stoddard

Don Stoddard was born in Washington D.C (at an early age) and resided in that renowned metropolis until he ventured forth to seek an education and thence (hopefully) his fortune. During a varied career, he has held many positions including police officer; certified public account, finance director, controller, and executive director of a large membership organization. Don resides with his wife in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where he continues to write his deathless, (or is that “deadly?”), prose.
