Flynn Book I Doris Woodard Wallace

FLYNN is a fundamental American hero in the tradition of Will Kane from High Noon, or Jeremiah Johnson from the film of the same name. He displays the rugged individualism and integrity that made this country great. Preston Flynn goes far beyond the bounds of the ordinary, a perfect specimen of male excellence, as fearless as he is handsome. Orphaned at age six, after witnessing the murder of his parents, he was reared by his uncle, United States Marhal, Freeman Pace, who wore a badge in Laredo, Texas. Preston Flynn followed in his uncle's foot steps, becoming the fastest gun in the State of Texas, earning a coveted reputation and a deputy marshal's badge at age sixteen. His state of concentration became awesome when challenged by fools, outlaws and gunslingers. He could close down mentally to a point that the rise and fall of his breath was no longer discernible, his eyes becoming as expressionless as those of a corpse, displaying the smile he was famous for, an expression that moved no further than his lips, and could make a man's blood run cold. As if he possess a sixth sense, he knew the instant his opponent would draw, his own hand moving in a blur of speed. Many men wanted to challenge him, but few had the nerve. His life was filled with violence, conflict, and frustration. His only weakness was the woman he loved, a woman who was beyond his reach, but remained in his blood like a fever.
