Hand-Me-Down Cowboy

By OWL Member, Jean Lafferty

Will Musgrave, an orphan boy of thirteen, has run away

from an abusive situation where he has been kept

prisoner for forced labor. Russell Donovan has lost his

wife and infant child and has turned to the bottle for

comfort. When Russell finds that Will has been living in his barn

loft, he is drawn back, however reluctantly, into the world of life,

hope, and love. Just when Russell begins to accept the boy and

they settle into a comfortable routine of family life, Caleb Sikes,

Will’s former captor, sets out to burn Russell’s home, kill his

cattle, and cause mayhem at every opportunity in order to get

Will back. The lengths Sikes is prepared to go raises the suspicion

in Russell’s mind that there is more than just free labor behind

Sikes’ brutal attacks. Eventually, Russell does learn that Will has a

relative, and he is forced to battle not only Caleb Sikes, but Will’s

Aunt Tilly, in order to keep his new-found family in tact. Review Gene

Lafferty's book and see your review posted on the OWL Book Review

page coming August 1, 2007. 

Gene Lafferty was born in Springfield, Missouri, a century

too late to experience the West in its heyday. A deep love for all

things western developed, however, in the pages of books by

Zane Gray, Luke Short, and of course Louis L’Amour. Today,

Lafferty resides in northern Arkansas and uses every opportunity

to travel west and write stories about it.
