AN AMERICAN OUTLAW

Sometimes the war at home is just deadly

Gilman James comes home from Iraq--last of three childhood friends to return. His brothers-in-arms are mere shadows of their former selves--Gil, unmarked, determines to take care of them. But how far should a man go for the people he loves?

Stepping across the line between right and wrong, Gil finds himself stranded in the Texan desert--as a bank heist he's planned goes horribly wrong. Pursued into the badlands by US Marshal John Whicher, a moment of violent reckoning is set in train.

What makes an outlaw? Marshal John Whicher, veteran of the First Gulf War thinks he knows. But can natural justice ever outrank the law?

AN AMERICAN KILL

Who will guard the guards themselves?

John Whicher is a US Marshal, not long out of training - barely twelve months back from serving in the Persian Gulf war. In south Texas, he's working his first case when a multiple shooting on the US / Mexico border leaves five non-documented aliens and one American dead.

The county decides to limit any inquest - money's tight, deaths among illegals are notoriously hard to crack. But Whicher, in his first case, is not about to see justice denied.

Praise for The Whicher Series by John Stonehouse...

'**I am a USMC Vietnam Vet.**Thank you for bringing out some of the treatment of our young men that we trained to kill but did not retrain to rejoin a society they are no longer a part of. I would recommend this book to anyone, but especially vets. Will be looking for more books by this author.' Jarhead, Amazon Reviews
