It’s been 15 years since Noose Holcomb perpetrated the Buzzard’s Edge Train Robbery of 1872, leaving Rory Daggett an orphan. Settled in with a new family and a second chance at life, Rory never quite sheds the thirst for revenge.
When one of the gang members returns to Buzzard’s Edge, Rory’s life is violently upended once more. Capturing the rogue spurs on a furious chain of events that pits Rory against each member of Noose’s gang, every one more twisted and terrifying than the last, in order to work his way to their leader.
With the help of a fellow orphan whose life Noose turned upside down and the town’s sheriff, Rory will stop at nothing to be the man who ends Noose’s reign of terror, but can he do it without becoming the man he seeks to kill?
Six months after the death of Noose Holcomb, Buzzard’s Edge rests in an uneasy quiet, but can a town that resonates with such hatred remain peaceful for long?
Dark forces conspire to chase Rory Daggett and his mute adopted daughter, Alice, into exile, framed for a crime they didn’t commit.
With a new sheriff and a notorious killer for hire tracking their every move, the two must choose between starting a new life and saving the soul of the town that betrayed them.
Strap yourselves in tight, folks, ’cause the blood-curdling saga of Rory Daggett and Buzzard’s Edge is fixin’ to unleash a harrowing storm. Get ready to face a nightmarish landscape where gunpowder and the macabre collide in a haunting dance of terror.

“What a genre smashing adventure! I have never read a western/horror book before…and now I’m hooked. The author kept me on the edge of my seat and even though I hadn’t read the first book, I wasn’t lost or confused while reading this one. Reading this gave me serious Walking Dead vibes but more intense and a way better plot and storyline. I will definitely go back and read the first book and I hope there are many more to come!” _ Kris10, Amazon Reviewer
“Noose by Brennan LaFaro is a fast paced, action packed, super natural Western dripping in whiskey and blood. A full-on revenge Western with horror elements that slash and shoot from all sides. Once the story kicks off, it doesn’t let up on the action, suspense and super-natural surprises. Definitely not a one-sided story. This story has a lot of heart, the characters are deep, and each story has enough firepower to break your heart. If you love horror, westerns or both – this is the perfect read for you. And the short story which LaFaro uses to close out the book is beautiful as well. Pick this one up and strap in for the wildest ride in the old west.” _ Tabitha Thompson
