You do know why a fast little critter like a rabbit was the creature chosen to hide all those eggs in everyone’s yard each year, don’t you? The chickens who lay the eggs learned the hard way that they would not be fast enough. They agreed to lay the chocolate and jelly bean eggs, but they opted out of delivering them after only three years. Most people don’t know that it was the third year of egg hiding, that a brutal mugging occurred. The first year went smooth for the Easter Chicken. She hid all the eggs no problem. The second year went pretty smooth as well. It was they third year, when all the parents knew the Easter Chicken was coming that they laid a trap. They mugged that poor chicken of all her chocolate, and ate it all before the sunrise. Times were harder back then and chocolate wasn’t as easy to acquire. The following year the chickens held a race to see who could deliver the eggs the fastest. I don’t want to get into any gory details, but the cheetah easily outperformed all the other critters racing, but had also built up a huge appetite from all that running around. Lets just say there were feathers everywhere.

Blood Money
by W.R. Benton
Genre: Literature & Fiction | Westerns | Action & Adventure
FREE for a limited time
From the Author of ‘Jake Masters, Bounty Hunter’
The old west of the 1800’s was a wild and untamed frontier, where robbery and theft was an everyday worry. Men had to be their own protectors and their own law onto themselves, particularly where civilization ended.
Ty Fischer, a down-on-his-luck mountain man, is shanghai-ed by the U.S. Army into trying to recover a stolen payroll shipment — in newly minted gold coins. He is probably up to the job, but for good measure the Army also sends along a grizzled cavalry Sergeant Major to help in the hunt. The robbers are a nasty bunch of cut-throats who may end up killing anyone that gets in their way… or even each other for a bigger share of the loot.
Western action abounds in this very latest release from W. R. Benton.
