“ Soldier’s Heart ”

  Paul Lee McWhorter Western Life Series

Living outside four walls with only your wits and a sound horse,

 a good tarp,  a Colt 45, and a Code of honor to protect you.

        Paul McWhoter gets called to the coast of Lousiana when one of his former Infantrymen is accused of murder and his family' is under attack. Clyde Darrow cries out for help and Paul McWhorter feels duty bound to reply although ithe task seems beyond hopeless - for Clyde is condemned for a murder there is no proof he committed simply because he is less well liked than the murdered man! What we know today as PTSD was called 'Soldier's heart' in the Civil War Era, when a soldier couldn't stand down from the stresses of battle even after he comes home. But there is always something more than meets the eye in intense, emotional confrontation, and this is no exception as Paul McWhorter and Clyde Darrow soon discover...when even the local Indians coordinating an attack on the town leave him to his misery!
