Narrative To Books The Peacemaker
With war scars that no one could see and that would not heal, Jack O'Malley drifted into Kanen, Colorado in the summer of 1873. Hired to be the new marshal, he is confronted with the suspicion and anxiety of a once peaceful, small town with a growing mining problem (or perhaps it is a mining town with a small growing problem). Whatever the case, O'Malley swiftly learns that the invisible foes that stalk him in his sleep are nothing compared to the passionately pious force that is the Ladies Church Society and the beautiful but feisty Amanda Morgan, a woman who finds O'Malley's lack of religion as disturbing as he finds her attractive. Their tangles over faith and propriety peak with the arrival of a sultry and scandalous songstress from O'Malley's past, a wave of criminal accusations from the town newspaper and a flood of questions from suspicious citizens about the mysterious stranger O'Malley is giving sanctuary in the town jail. With troubling questions being raised regarding O'Malley's personal history, the one thing even the most patient of townspeople are growing certain of is that the new marshal isn't likely to see the New Year in Kanen.Rating Appertaining To Books The Peacemaker

Addictive page-turner. So funny. So sad. So thought provoking. Absolutely entertaining. SJ Richard has a steady pace and a wonderful grasp of dialogue and setting. I know this town. I can see and hear these people. It's like a just watch a movie it was so clear in my head. A must read for anyone who loves great story telling and wants to fall in love with a slightly tarnished hero.This book is an excellent read. The characters and dialogue are very well thought out. One of the few books that I have read lately where I felt invested in the story and wanting more when it ended. I laughed out loud, cried and sometimes found myself shouting at some of the 'unsavory' folk (my family thought I was crazy until they read it). Please don't be misled into thinking it is the stereo typical western or historical fiction, it is not. It is historically accurate for the time it
My husband and I disagree about movies, art and literature, but we agree on this: The Peacemaker is an amazing story. Then the disagreeing begins. I want another chapter, another installment of this saga. He thinks it ends perfectly and doesn't need one word more (this is my review so I can say he is wrong--this story needs a sequel, perhaps multiple sequels). I love the characters. They are so lively and loveable--except those that aren't and those few are despicable and detestable (the kind of

Pretty good!!Excellent character development! Extremely readable .Not a page-turner; but very good light reading. I will get another by this author.
Awesome read. A real page turner. Perhaps the next great American novel--only gave 4 stars because it left me wanting more (in a very good way!) and I actually lost a night of sleep pondering this story. Hoping the author reads this: PLEASE WRITE A SEQUEL. You really can't just leave it there. Amazing ending and yet... I can't just walk away from this town and these people.
