The Stringer Series - Book 4
Stringer and the Hangman's Rodeo
“With a fast pace and a friendly drawl, Peter Berkrot tells the story of cowboy newsman Stringer as he is sent to Cheyenne, Wyoming, to cover a rodeo—and ends up uncovering a crime. Berkrot is perfect as Stringer, the ultimate hero, who can ride a bronco better than rodeo professionals and draw his gun faster than infamous outlaws while the ladies line up to have their way with him. Berkrot gives spirited portrayals of the many colorful characters as they fight, spit, bleed, and seduce. He whips out salty language and hilarious quips as naturally as any cowboy of the Old West. The good guy will obviously prevail, so listeners can simply relax and be entertained.”

Cheyenne, Wyoming, is a town that's leaping into the twentieth century spurs first. Pretty soon Cheyenne will be just as newfangled fancy as any Eastern city. But the folks there still know how to have fun. First the rodeo-and then the hanging. It's the rodeo that Stringer has been sent out to write about. However, before he knows it, he's up to his neck in the West's most notorious murder case. They're fixin' to hang Tom Horn, but something in town smells worse than a stable boy's boots, and Stringer aims to find out what it is.
