Book
The Man Called Noon
First published 1970
Set in the late nineteenth-century American West, The Man Called Noon is a novel built around the pressures of its historical setting. In one swift moment a fall wiped away his memory. Now all he knew for certain was that someone wanted him dead--and that he had better learn why. But everywhere he turned there seemed to be more questions--or people too willing to hide the truth behind a smoke screen of lies. He had only the name he had been told was his own, his mysterious skill with a gun, and a link to a half million dollars' worth of buried gold as evidence of his past life. Was the treasure his? Was he a thief? A killer? He didn't have the answers, but he needed them soon.
