Heck's Stand: Heck and Hope, Book 5 Paperback – 13 June 2023

John Deacon . Independently Published . English

The only treasure in this land is water... Running from an Indian war party, Heck hunkers down in a cluster of boulders sheltering the only water for miles-and several strangers awaiting the impending siege. Here, Heck will make his stand, facing not only the war party but also danger from within. Because as temperatures rise and water dwindles, the deadly forces of fear, greed, and stubborn pride pit him against the very people he's fighting to save. Heck's Stand is a classic Western with a touch of romance. It's perfect for fans of C.J. Petit and R.O. Lane. "John Deacon writes the kind of Westerns I like to read-gritty and fun with lots of heart." - Don Bentley, New York Times Bestselling author of the Matt Drake series and Tom Clancy Jack Ryan, Jr. novels

About the Author

I was born six months before man landed on the moon. I was blessed to grow up in the country, where my family lived largely off the land. When I wasn’t fishing, exploring the woods, or weeding the garden, I devoured comic books like Two-Gun Kid and The Rawhide Kid before moving on to the exciting adventure stories of Jack London and Louis L’Amour. Our black-and-white TV got three channels, though you could lose one and pick up another if you went outside and messed with the antenna. On its grainy screen, we watched Gunsmoke, Bonanza, and movies starring John Wayne and Clint Eastwood. Now a husband and father, I love exploring the West and reading history and fiction alike. My favorite authors are Louis L’Amour, Elmore Leonard, C.J. Petit, and R.O. Lane. As a writer, I hope to entertain you with fun stories of the old West. My good guys are good, my bad guys are bad, and you’ll always find a touch of romance to sweeten the grit. Let’s keep in touch.
