The characters of this audiobook bring the story to life, especially with their different accents. Some of the slang and phrases used in this book were a little confusing; sometimes I had to rewind to figure out what was being said. The story itself was interesting, but it also felt as if something was missing from the plot.

Jack Garrett narrated the audiobook for this novel and I was pleasantly surprised by how he captured the voice of an outlaw. Usually, when I listen to books read by someone other than the author, it takes me a few chapters to get used to their voice. With this book (and I'm sure similar novels), however, his voice is perfect from start to finish.

The year was 1881, and Sonny Corleone was now a fugitive from justice. The law had long ago given up the search for him, but to the outlaws he was still wanted. They knew he wouldn't come back to town or give up his outlaw ways. The problem for them was that Sonny was getting old and his skills were diminishing.
