Bastard son of an outlaw and a whore, Duane Braddock was raised in a monastery and at 17, can't ride a horse,
shoot a gun and is defenceless against warm whiskey, wanton women and screaming lead.
But before long, Duane is feared by every gunman in the county as the notorious "Pecos Kid".

#3: APACHE MOON

Duane Braddock and Phyllis Thorton are on the dodge to Mexico. Wanted for a double murder, Braddock thought it best to keep moving.

Federal Marshal Dan Stowe rides into the Bar-T ranch. He has traveled all the way from San Antonio with a warrant for Duane Braddock. Everyone he speaks to tells of Braddock's innocence, except Lt. Clayton Dawes. An Army officer with a grudge, so Stowe is left with no choice but to go after Braddock.

Between Mexico and freedom lays treacherous Apache land. It could spell death. For Braddock, it becomes a haven — a place to discover a priceless piece of his heritage. But Stowe is hell-bent on getting his hands on the fat bounty offered to get Phyllis home and smoke out the Pecos Kid.

Braddock is heading for a shootout that will brand him an outlaw forever—or leave him stone-cold dead.

The story gains momentum, as the tension and mystery of the situation increase. The tale takes on a new life, and it becomes impossible to put it down. My interest and satisfaction rose from a three to a five-star appreciation. Five Star Review at GoodReads.com

#2: THE RECKONING

He was too green to live and too lucky to die. He was a natural, born to be a legend.

Running from an angry town, Duane Braddock takes a job as a cowhand, hoping to settle down. But two things stand in his way: the sone of a neighboring rancher who wants him dead, and a ruthless Army officer who wants his fiancee.

Duane could have handled these two me if they hadn't found out why he left Titusville. And if he hadn't fallen in love with another woman, things would have worked out okay.

But now Braddock's reputation as the quick-killing, hard-loving kid is on the line. One wrong move and he's dead!
