Author: William W. Johnstone & J. A. Johnston
ISBN: 9780786018246
Pages: 256
Year: 2007
Publisher: Pinnacle
My rating: 5 out of 5 stars.
In “Bear River Tom and the Mud Creek Massacre,” readers will enjoy the short tale being told from the point of view of Bear River Tom himself. Bear River Tom is a big man, and when he fights it isn’t with guns, it’s with his fists. Tom is a sheriff who upholds the law of the town but not everyone likes what he is doing and plans to change his mind.
One day a young gal comes riding in on a buckboard, claiming she needs his help. While Tom has some misgivings, he goes anyway. When they arrive at the spot where she claims there is trouble, what Tom finds confirms his suspicions. What occurs next is what makes this short tale entertaining and Bear River Tom one of my favorite characters in the Johnstone world.
So, if you like a good tale, look no further because here is one that will leave you looking for more tales from the Johnstone pen!
