Johnstone Country. Where Legends Fight or Die.

Bounty hunter Luke Jensen has always relied on his guns, his brains, and his guts to bring in the deadliest outlaws in the West. But when a family needs his help, he’ll have to use something else: his heart . . .
 
BLOOD IS THICKER THAN SLAUGHTER
 
Luke Jensen has seen some sorry looking bounties in his time, but this one takes the cake. A wanted poster is offering a reward of one dollar and forty-two cents—plus one busted harmonica—to capture Three-Fingered Jack McKinney. Turns out, McKinney’s twelve-year-old son Aaron wants revenge on his daddy for abandoning him and his mom. The reward is all the money Aaron can scrape together. Luke can’t say no to the poor boy—or his beautiful mother—so he agrees to go after McKinney and his bank-robbing gang.
 
Good deeds, however, are like good intentions—the road to hell is paved with them. And when Aaron McKinney decides to tag along, it puts Luke in the middle of a father-and-son reunion that’s life-or-death, blood-for-blood, and kill-or-be-killed. . . .

    As a senior citizen my voracious reading passion has spanned more than 7 decades. My reading interests have ranged from the scientific to the esoteric and from detective stories to westerns. Over the years I have had the pleasure of reading numerous great western writers. This is why when I saw this 317-page paperback book on Amazon (Burning Daylight: A Luke Jensen Bounty Hunter by William W. Johnstone and J. A, Johnstone) I decided to purchase it.

    I have read several western novels in the Luke Jensen series and found them to be entertaining reads. This Luke Jensen tale begins with Luke getting ready to have a drink at a saloon in Summerville in the Arizona territory, where he has been hunting three killer outlaws. As with many beginning books, this story starts with one of the four owl hoots Luke is looking for begins to shoot at Luke, but the bounty hunter winds up killing him, as well two other of the wanted men, while the fourth one got away. At this point one of the killers was taken alive; however, this is just the beginning of this interesting western story. The story gets more complex and interesting, but never give away too much information when reviewing any novel.

    If you are a Luke Jensen, bounty hunter, fan you will enjoy this action-packed western novel.
    Rating: 5 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: Shotokan Karate Self-Defense Techniques: Combat karate for the street).

    When Bounty Hunter Luke Jensen learns about the bounty on Three Fingered Jack McKinney, his mind was already ringing up dollars. But Luke learns that sometimes there is more to the life of an owlhoot than than the money to be gained. There are also innocent lives involved and the memories of the family. Top notch book.

    A missing father turns outlaw chief and the Bounty Hunter wants to know why. With the help of the youngest of two sons he enters the lair of a famous outlaw, spoils a raid on a gold cache, and finally brings the gang to frontier justice. Fascinating tale with plenty of twists and turns. Well worth the time.

    !Luke Jensen bounty hunter on the the 👣trail hunting "Three Fingers McKinley" and his gang wanted for robberies. He abandoned his wife and sons for the life of an OUTLAW.
    That's how life was in the West. The son Thad it a bounty on his father for "one dollar and forty -two cents for any information concerning his father whereabouts. Pretty cheap...right? That's what anger can lead to, no one likes to be rejected!
    This interesting adventure, has a lot of humanity going around and examples of how boys react when their father deserted the family without any means of support or stability. Very sad, but you'd be surprised at the stamina people exhibit when life hands them the sticky of the stick. Sometimes all you see is the dust in the wind as they hit the trail of no return..ouch
