Lancer; Hero of the West - Bob Brill - Bog

The Los Angeles Affair is the second in the Lancer; Hero of the West series of western novels by Bob Brill. Lancer is a mysterious good-guy gunslinger who hires out to those in need of his services. He solves crimes first by using his wits, the his fists and then and only then, his gun. An excellent marksman, Lancer doesn't lose when the gun is used. Based in Tombstone in the 1880's, Lancer came from the East, a former Union officer. He comes from money so while his fees are high they are not important to him. Justice is. A respecter of women and children and a man "of the law" he is not a lawman. Lancer is a compilation of the western television heroes of the 1950's and 1960's. Combined with award winning writer Bob Brill's own ideas of what a man of justice of the 1880's should be, Lancer is a man everyone would like to call friend. Women would like to call him more than a friend and they often do. Lancer, a world traveler, likes the finer things in life but he's not afraid to get down and dirty. Well bred and well read, he often quotes Shakespeare or the great poets and philosophers. A man of the people, Lancer is someone you'd love to meet and you are certainly glad he's on your side. He has a sweet tooth as well, always carrying in his saddle bags a small box of Turkish Delight. His great horse Lincoln is a mighty steed and named after the Great American President, Lincoln is as trusted as it gets. A song about Lancer; Hero of the West, written by Oscar and Grammy winners (Al Kasha and Ron Dante) and performed by Dante, can be found on YouTube.
