Synopsis

Legend has it that bank robber Harry Longbaugh and his partner Robert Parker were killed in a shootout in Bolivia. That was the supposed end of the Sundance Kid and Butch Cassidy. Sundance tells a different story. At the beginning of the twentieth century, Longbaugh is very much alive, though serving in a Wyoming prison under an alias. When he is released in 1913, Longbaugh reenters a changed world. What hasn't changed are Longbaugh's ingenuity, his deadly aim, and his and his love for his wife, Etta Place. Determined to find her, Longbaugh follows her trail to New York City. Confounded by the city's immensity, energy, chaos, and crowds, Longbaugh finds himself in a tense game of cat and mouse, racing against time before the legend of the Sundance Kid catches up to destroy him.

Goodreads review by Philip on April 01, 2023

At least three stars for a surprisingly clever and well-written story, even allowing for a few too many coincidences. Fuller has done a lot of research, and does a good job bringing 1913 New Your City to life, much like Caleb Carr did in The Alienist, set less than a decade earlier. But then at least......more

Goodreads review by Maryann on June 17, 2014

What a great historical novel! This has it all, a wonderful immersion into old New York City, a great love story, and a character you will root for as he searches for the woman who stood by him until she suddenly disappeared. David Fuller is definitely a writer who knows his craft. I see a movie her......more

Goodreads review by Michael on May 05, 2018

Among other things, I’ve been a more or less professional genealogist for more than fifty years (an obvious interest for a big-city librarian with several history degrees), and because I have an interest in the so-called Old West, I’ve spent some time researching some of the better-known Good Guys a......more
