A Question of Bounty

A Shot in the Dark. A Questionable Claim. A Mystery That Just Won't Die.

In the exciting conclusion to his epic Bounty Trilogy, bestselling author Paul Colt pulls back the curtain on one of the West's most enduring mysteries-the death of Billy the Kid at the hands of Sheriff Pat Garrett on July 14, 1881.

Emerging as a violent and headstrong young gunslinger during the famed Lincoln County War, William F. Bonney's audacious outlaw escapades are legendary-but are they accurate? Witness the intricate web of contradictions surrounding not only his reputation, but his supposed death, as well. Was it truly Billy who met his demise that night, or did the pressure on Garrett from above lead to a case of mistaken identity and an elaborate cover-up?

Skillfully conceived and masterfully written, A Question of Bounty: The Shadow of Doubt will make you question everything you thought you knew about the man known as Billy the Kid.
