Cowboy Life, Gun Battles and a Mystery in this Engaging Western
A drifting cowboy, more than he seems, who enjoys riding the wild country and experiencing life from the back of his horse stumbles upon a big cattle rustling mystery and he now sits in the center of a potential cattle war powderkeg waiting for the spark to touch it off.Milo Talon grew up on one of the largest spreads in Colorado owned by his fierce Tennessee mountain bred mother and his renaissance man father. His brother Barnabas takes on scholarly pursuits and will run the family ranch some day, but Milo hasn't found what he needs to make him settle down. He's a hard worker and enjoy the hard life out on the wild frontier. He's loyal and hates bullies which is what makes him take a job with a small ranch operation in north central Texas working for a man from his past who may or may not have mended his ways after attempting to steal Talon cattle back in the day. Someone is stealing and they are doing it from all the local ranches. That person is also trying hard to make Milo dead. Meanwhile, Milo encounters four local Texas gals and falls back on what he learns from his ma and pa's marriage to keep him out of that sort of trouble. Hopefully.I love the blend of elements that L'Amour brought to this story. There is traditional western frontier adventure, a thriller-style mystery, whiffs of romance, and excellent characters and feel for time and place. Milo is an introspective man who is looking for a reason to light and stay even while appreciating all he encounters along life's journey. He has strong principles and works hard, crediting both his parents for this. The reader is immersed in the life of a cowboy and ranch work throughout this book even while the tension from a potential range war that will hurt everyone sits on the horizon. There are lag times, but for the most part, this story moves along drawing the suspense and offering a few twists to keep the reader fully engaged.The narrator, MacLeod Andrews, did excellent work bringing to life the men and women living on the Texas frontier. He gave distinct accents for southern aristocrat The Major to Mexican California Tony. He told this tale in a way that kept me riveted even through the philosophical moments let alone the action sequences.All in all, another winner for me from this author that left an ongoing thirst for more particularly from the Talon and Chantry family series. Those who enjoy western fiction with a strong mystery and lesser romance element should pick this one up.

A Lesson Learned
There was not enough information available for me to understand the book was in Spanish which I don't read, speak or write. Therefore; the book is worthless to me.A lesson learned.
