CRITICAL ACCLAIM FOR PAUL COLT: "In 1877, legendary Texas badman Sam Bass nets a pretty sum from stagecoach and train robberies in Nebraska and Wyoming, respectively. Rival detective agencies go after him . . . Pinkerton . . . and the Great Western Detective
League . . . crisply told, with workmanlike attention to minor characters and flashes of humor."--

Wanted Sam Bass>
"Like the first book in the Bounty series, 2014's A Question of Bounty, this one cleverly and seamlessly mixes fact and fiction, telling a small, personal story set against a larger historical fiction backdrop. Ledger and Roth make a good literary team, two men who are both very similar and very different, both driven to risk their own lives to bring justice (or perhaps revenge?) to a killer. Great stuff for fans of traditional westerns."--
