Fans of Westerns are in for a treat with Gitte Tamar's Ten-Cent Man. It's the 1860s. Alonzo Bill is a womanizing cowboy with a love of alcohol. Over the years, he has managed to establish himself as the resident ghost hunter in a small town in the Wild West. With the town sheriff as his partner, Alonzo takes advantage of the superstitions of the local townsfolk to run a profitable business as a con man. However, when Preacher Boone seeks his help in treating his eleven-year-old daughter, who might be possessed, Alonzo realizes that the supernatural might be all too real. Reborn as a man of faith, Alonzo sets off following the trail of a bottle of holy water to arrive in the decrepit town of Whittletown, where he will confront his past.
Gitte Tamar takes readers on a rollercoaster of a ride into the Wild West. Featuring swaggering cowboys, brainwashed cults, and a tinge of the supernatural, Ten-Cent Man captivates you from beginning to end. Keeping a brisk pace, the author weaves a gripping narrative that switches back and forth in time following the adventures of a rogue in search of redemption. The plot is unpredictable and filled to the brim with suspense, mystery, and hair-raising moments that keep you on the edge of your seat. The potent combination of thrills and dark humor gives the narrative a unique tone that makes for a very entertaining reading experience. I found myself thoroughly invested in Alonzo's tale and very much enjoyed it. I highly recommend this book to lovers of Westerns and thrillers.
