Book Overview
Accused of murdering two federal judges, can a man hide in plain sight and live out some semblance of a normal life?
After a surprising message arrives from his bride-to-be, Kincaid accepts a friend’s advice and takes to the rails and back roads of the West, wearing the badge of a Wells Fargo Express special agent—a shotgun messenger. But will enclosed railcars and out-of-the-way stagecoach runs provide adequate cover when outlaws prove determined to take strongboxes, lives, or both? Will newspaper writeups and WANTED dodgers land Kincaid right back in the public eye when all he wants is anonymity and the chance to start anew?
BIOGRAPHY GP Hutchinson has been a longtime enthusiast of baseball, America's first true national pastime, a game played from coast to coast by the late 1800s. While he enjoys the game as it is played today, his most recent novels are tales of players caught up in life-and-death struggles during the early years of professional baseball. Steeped in the actual history of the game, as well as societal realities of the times, these stories feature both fictional and actual characters, teams, and leagues.
Hutchinson cut his teeth as an author writing Westerns--stories set on the broad stage of a breathtaking yet daunting land, populated with colorful (if somewhat fanciful) heroes and heroines who overcome frightful odds, almost always at great cost. Texas was his home for a few years, and subsequent visits to states throughout the West only served to deepen his enthusiasm for the region and his appreciation of its people.
In 2015, Hutchinson's first Western novel, "Strong Convictions," won him the Western Fictioneers Peacemaker Award for Best First Western of that year, as well as a gold medal from the National Indie Excellence Awards. "Strong Suspicions," the second volume in the Emmett Strong Western series, garnered a gold medal in the 2016 Readers' Favorite International Book Awards. And "Strong Ambitions" took silver in 2017 Readers' Favorite Awards.
Regarding "Strong Convictions," Classic Western film star Alex Cord wrote, "GP Hutchinson has the gift to tell a compelling tale, enlighten you without preaching and keep you on the edge of your seat. He takes you on unexpected trails populated by flesh and blood characters of depth and substance."
A graduate of Louisiana State University and Dallas Theological Seminary, Hutchinson has lived in Costa Rica and Spain. He currently resides in upstate South Carolina with his wife, Carolyn. Besides writing, he enjoys spending time in the mountains and horseback riding whenever the opportunity arises.
