The story starts out like the plot of SHANE or a dozen
other western plots, where the gunslinger arrives in the town where a rich
rancher is pushing the little farmer out. But in this case we’re not in the
western movies. Kim is hiding out after she ended up with a broken arm after
her previous job. Taking her paraplegic brother, Donnie, to a desert community
of old folks down on their luck, she discovers there’s even danger here. The
local boss wants the area the camp is sitting on, and his men are harassing
them, trying to force the old timers out. One of the old men wants to fight the
gang, and keeps pushing the rest to follow him, yet the results are disastrous.
Kim decides to step in and do something about it, even though one arm is in a
cast. She still has her .357 with her, and plans an invasion of the enemy’s
camp, only to run into a Russian agent with his own plans.
This is another topnotch Kim Oh adventure, with a great
plot and characters, and Kim and Donnie are at their best, even when at a
disadvantage. If we carry the similarity to SHANE further, we can expect a slam-bang
ending, and are not disappointed. My only complaint is that I want this series
in paperback editions for my shelf. Highly recommended for action lovers.
