Loren D. Estleman delivers a haunting and masterful tale of the American West in The Master Executioner.
Oscar Stone is a craftsman unlike any other-his art lies in the gallows, where he ensures death is swift and precise. But as the bodies mount, so do the questions about justice, humanity, and the price of a life spent wielding death.
When a shadow from his past resurfaces, Stone is forced to confront the truth about himself-and the cost of a life spent in the service of death. Set against the gritty backdrop of frontier law and vengeance, Stone's story is one of profound complexity, where morality and duty clash.
Mr. Estleman movingly conveys the brutalizing effects of killing for the law, even when you are terribly good at it. -The Economist
