Comanche by Brett Riley
4.0
In 1887, the town of Comanche, Texas was the site of the last stand of infamous outlaw, The Piney Woods Kid. After his death, vigilantes dragged The Kid’s body behind the town’s train depot and hacked it apart. In 2016, the residents of Comanche are shaken as two of the descendants of the vigilante party are brutally murdered behind the very same depot. Witnesses to both crimes say the killer was dressed like an old-fashioned cowboy and soon, rumors begin to fly while hysteria builds as people fear that the ghost of The Piney Woods Kid is out for revenge. When a private investigative team from New Orleans arrives to look into the murders, they find themselves right in the path of the killer and his mission. Is The Kid back or is a sick copycat out to repeat history?
Cowboy ghosts! Murder mystery! Cowboy ghosts!!! Murder mystery!!! COWBOY GHOSTS AND A MURDER MYSTERY!!!!!! I love westerns so much. Possibly the only thing I love more than westerns is a good crime fiction story. And the only thing I love more than a good crime fiction story is a legit, scare-your-pants-off ghost story. This book has it all! With different chapters taking place in different years, the reader gets to experience The Kid’s post-mortem reign of terror in two different centuries.
