Synopsis

George Sully stopped every few seconds to listen in the cold night. He tried to steady his frayed nerve and might have done so but cold steel pricked his neck, just below his right ear. The hairs on his nape stood on end and his mind squealed in silent terror.

"Move again and I'll leave you for the wolves."

His body froze, fear gripping every nerve.

Joel Bannon eased the pressure off the Bowie. "Man can't take a hundred steps in this country on bare feet or you'll slice 'em to the bone. Know this for the fact it is, Sully. If the land don't bury you, I will. If the natives don't blister you, I will. If bears don't gut you, I will. Nowhere you can go I won't be there. Crawl to the edge of the earth, to the last piece of land you can find. I'll be there."

About this title

About the Author

Ray Dyson first took up eating in Evansville, Indiana, far enough back that not only is the house he was born in no longer there, neither is the street. He had a short career as a baseball player, but a long career as a newspaperman whose gigs included crime reporter, sports reporter and sports editor. He is also a noted Western historian. He is the author of the baseball book, Smokey Joe: A Baseball Fable, a tale of legendary pitcher Smokey Joe Hood. That book, and Bannon, involve members of the Bannon family: Joel Patrick, the main character in Bannon, and his grandson, Henry Louis Bannon, an outfielder in Smokey Joe. His mystery novel, The Ice Cream Blonde, set in the Hollywood of the early 1930s, follows York Studios security chief Neil Brand as he solves the murder of a famous movie star mixed up in blackmail and white slavery. His latest Neil Brand tale, The Naked Nymph in the Dark Flickers, about a rising movie star caught up in a treacherous blackmail scheme that turns to murder, is now available. He lives in Mansfield, Ohio, with his family. In retirement, he works even harder on his golf game, but with less success.
