Deadly Reprisal
Justice from the barrel of a gun…
Mary Elizabeth Doyle has gotten on the wrong side of Billy Parker, crack-shot member of the outlawed Parker Gang.
Having won his confidence when he paid for her services in the town of Dodge, Mary learned of Billy’s plans to raid nearby Wellhead and rob the local bank.
Unable to sit back and let such injustice occur, Mary tells Billy’s secret to a group of Irish bounty hunters, led by the charismatic and charming Tom Callaghan.
And now Billy is out for revenge, determined to hunt down the woman he knows as Hermione – the woman who betrayed him.
After Mary escapes Dodge with the bounty hunters, Billy and the rest of the Parker Gang set off in hot pursuit of her.
But whilst no one in Wellhead knows anyone by the name of Hermione, a striking new woman has been spotted stirring mutiny at the town’s bordello, and getting on the wrong side of its cruel and brutal Madam.
Misleading the town’s gullible Sheriff Lawton by laying false tracks towards the mountains, the Parker Gang enter the town unnoticed, unchallenged, and with murder on their minds…
An attempt to kidnap Mary erupts into a bloody showdown where Mary shows she is no stranger to a gun herself.
Can she outwit and outshoot the ruthless Parker Gang, and in the process, change a few of the townspeople’s’ lives for the better?
With bullets flying all directions, Deadly Reprisal is the latest book in The Bounty Hunter series.
