Another backstory of a character from my book "O'Shea Ranch S.A."

In January 1869, ten fleeing bandits, bent on freedom, had no idea how violent the Comanche could be. The posse trailing them had thinned to just one man, they figured they would lose him in a twisting canyon ahead. The ten desperate men rode into the canyon, with Bain following a few hours behind. The bandits had thought that Bain was their biggest problem-until they encountered the Indians. Bain wondered would he capture them, or meet his end at the hands of the blood-thirsty Comanche?

A Christmas Story
He needed supplies for the winter.

Jack Witherspoon was a precocious kid, especially when it came to guns. He started out as a farm boy, but had killed his first man by the time he was 13. He became a professional gunslinger and managed to accumulate a big load of gold while he was still young. Later on, he wound up with five wives. The dialog is pretty thick, mostly with the dropped “d” and “g” word endings. I hope you enjoy the story, anyway.

Jack Hazard was a successful bounty hunter, but he was nothing special beyond that. Then he got conked with a full beer bottle on the back of the head. When he came to, he was hearing voices even when nobody was talking! He thought that he was going crazy, but then he discovered that he had developed ESP and the other quirks that go with it. See what mind reading, etc. can do for a professional bounty hunter.
