I was recommended Van Holt from a number of others in my bookclub, and I'm glad I decided to give him a chance. Not a reader of Westerns by nature, I found that my taste for action thrillers was easily matched by Van Holt's type of books. So if you like action packed novels like me, or even mysteries, I think you will equally be delighted with Van Holt.I believe its a combination of his own writing with the characters and plot he puts together that make it all work.Jim Benton arrives at the small town of Rustler's Roost which holds a number of surprises fro him, including gunshots made at him.And then come the threats, Fry's girls, and plenty of more action.So follow Jim Benton has he leaves a trail of dead men in his wake.It's one hell of a ride.
