Before the term outlaw even existed, four daring desperados were defining it-pulling off incredible train heists and robberies that would forever become the source material for Wild West history.
Their skill and cunning inspired the creation of the James-Younger Gang, the Dalton Gang, even Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. But the Reno brothers were all real. And when they began tearing a path through America's heartland with a string of bank and train robberies so intricate and perfectly orchestrated that nobody could solve them, it wasn't long before world-famous detective Allen Pinkerton was put on the case.
Now, lured into a revealing interview by a beautiful young woman, Pinkerton shares the story of the shrewdest and most intelligent outlaws that he had ever pursued-quite the accomplishment, when his agency was famous for pursuing them all.
Penned by accomplished Western actor Jesse Lee Vint, The Brothers Reno is an engaging work of historical fiction, inspired by the true stories of some of the most courageous and cunning cowboys of the American West. Serving as a candid portrait of the post-Civil War era, Reno strikes a perfect balance of humor, heart, and history for a fast-paced and entertaining read from beginning to end.
