Nowhere, TX: A Ralph Compton Novel by David Robbins

RALPH COMPTON stood six foot eight without his boots. He worked as a musician, a radio announcer, a songwriter, and a newspaper columnist. His first novel, The Goodnight Trail, was a finalist for the Western Writers of America Medicine Pipe Bearer Award for best debut novel. He was also the author of the Sundown Rider series and the Border Empire series.

The violence in this engrossing story of the lawless Old West is senseless, brutal, and graphic. Evans narrates this chilling tale with icy restraint in a perfectly cadenced style, including a wide range of voices and accents for the outlaws, cowboys, and townsfolk. With no central character, the story of Nowhere, Texas, located in No-Man's Land, is all about tough, gritty action. Evans's voice empathizes well with the emotions of the character ensemble. As the story builds to a violent confrontation, the unexpected events will keep listeners involved. S.C.A. © AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
