Holt County, Nebraska, 1881. Deputy sheriff Whit Branham sets out by himself to bring in a scurvy killer, but will surprise alone be an advantage? Armed with his trusty Stevens 10-gauge and some hard won experience, even Branham isn’t above giving the devil his due. This 3,000 word short story introduces Branham and is followed by a 2,000 word sneak peek at the deputy’s upcoming adventure, HOLT COUNTY LAW, a brand new novella slated for December.
Growing up in Knox County, Nebraska, which borders Holt County to the west, I have lots of fond memories of the land, the people, and the endless rugged landscape of the Elkhorn and Niobrara river valleys. I hope you’ll drop past Amazon and pick up a copy, and if you do, please let me know what you think with a comment here on the blog or quick review there.
BRANHAM’S DUE is available here for 99 cents.
Got my copy. Started reading it a little at lunch, but just got through the first couple of pages.
Thanks for picking it up, Charles! Hope you’ll enjoy the finish and the sneak peek too.
Loved this one and look forward to HOLT COUNTY.
Thank you, Randy! Much appreciated. Whit threw me a few curves here and there. Hoping to explore those on the blog in 2013.
I hope you are doing good Rich. You came a long ways, from a little known town called Bloomfield.
