The Scavengers

A Death & Texas Western, Book 3

By: J.A. Johnstone, William W. Johnstone

Narrated by: John Little

Lone Star Sheriff Cullen McCabe has always been a risk-taker. But sometimes, taking a risk means taking a bullet—unless you kill first . . .

EVERYTHING IS BIGGER IN TEXAS. EVEN DEATH.

Sheriff McCabe knew he’d make a lot of enemies when he agreed to be a special agent for the Texas governor. But now that he’s managed to keep the peace in the hopeless town of New Hope, he’s hoping he can go home to Two Forks and get back to business as usual.

No such luck.

The corrupt marshal of East City, Micah Moran, and his murdering band of kill-crazy cutthroats are running wild, leaving the folks in East City in a deadly grip of terror. Now, Two Forks will have to wait because Micah Moran and his evil gang need to be taught some manners—with McCabe’s own brand of retribution.

Consistently great series….

Have read all three in order and aggressively and disappointingly looked for a fourth. Truly and entertaining and captivating stories. Such real detail!

Clever means of overcoming the outlaws.

The final tragic death at the end of the story. I won't spoil it, but it was a disappointing death.

the death of Jake

Killing Jake was too much, too sad an ending. ruined the ending, thus the book.

Character development Was excellent

McCabe was A great Humanitarian and Was not the typical western gunfighter hero that just ran into a situation Without thinking about the outcome of his actions

Excellent western

Solid western. In the vein of milk short and Max brand. I enjoyed it so much. I binge listened to episode one through three.

I listed to all Cullen Macade stories. Hope they are more coming soon

A quiet man that always gets the job done. Highly recommend this series. Very interesting

Great Story lines

I’ve been taking a break on Sci-Fi and war novels and this western series is just what I needed. Keep them coming!

The relationship between Colin and Jake his horse.

How hard it was to get the people of the town to defend their town from the outlaws and how the outlaw treated the people of the town

Tired Story Line

I have listened to all three of the books featuring Cullen McCabe so far. I enjoy the charactorization. He is sort of a western Jack Reacher. However this bad guy trying to take over a town plot line in all three stories is becoming tedious. This type of plot has been featured in countless movies and TV western dramas, and I have never understood the fascination with this story line. it was very unlikely that a man or group of men could have taken over a western town that was in many cases settled by civil war veterans who were comfortable with firearms and not so easily pushed around.
