DESCRIPTION:
Inside is all that remains of three men who died forty-four years before. Because his quarry is getting angry now, and has turned the chase back on him. For decades, Clive Cussler has been delighting readers with novels filled with suspense, action, and sheer audacity. government brings in the best man they can find-a tall, lean, no-nonsense detective named Isaac Bell, who has caught thieves and killers coast to coast. Now he does it again, in one of the wildest, most entertaining historical thrillers in years. But Bell has never had a challenge like this one. April 1950: The rusting hulk of a steam locomotive rises from the deep waters of a Montana lake. Filled with intricate plotting, dazzling signature set pieces, and not one but two extraordinary villains, this is the work of a master writing at the
The U.S. Bell heads the manhunt and finally figures out the Butcher's true identity, which is when the real chase begins. government hires the renowned Van Dorn Detective Agency and its equally renowned lead agent, Isaac Bell, to capture the bank robber known as the Butcher Bandit. . The Butcher has gunned down 38 men and women and two children, leaving behind neither witnesses nor clues. Unfortunately, Cussler's style is patterned on the clunky dialogue (I pray you catch the murdering scum) and improbable characters of the period's dime novels, and his in-depth research makes his descriptions sound like advertising.

The Kate O'Hara books are fresh, a new plot with new characters and outrageous in their concept! You will never want to read another story till you have read this series!.

I have enough reality & enjoy a good mystery to escape. I'm looking forward to reading the next in the series..
