A western combined with a sort of whodunit - perfect for someone who grew up watching all the cowboy shows on TV and then morphed into someone who loves detectives. This is a well-written and well-paced book. Gabriel Stokes and Jed White are wonderfully round and crafted characters. The landscape through which they move, Oregon, is both well-drawn and accurate. It feels like the frontier. The attention to detail is something we come to expect from a skilled writer such as Matthew but in this book, he excels himself. I finished the book in three days and it is a book that I know I will return to." --Griff Hosker
