Creede of Old Montana by Stephen Bly USA Publisher: Center Point/Thorndike "No one knew how Avery John Creede got the scar on his face. No one except Avery and the one who did it. He never talked about it. Most who knew him figured the other person dead. Not the type of scar that makes you wince and turn your head, and never covered by a beard, it hung high on his cheek bone like a badge of honor."

It's an older book, copywrighted in 1972, but an excellent read. Rebecca, Missouri _________________________________________________________________ Six To One Against by Lyndon Stacey Lyndon Stacey website **** An entertaining read. For those of us who enjoy Dick Francis, this lady is running a close 2nd! Lyndon Stacey grabbed my interest on the very first sentence and held it until the end. It's fast paced, enjoyable and also has some education thrown in for good measure. The central character, Gideon Blake, is a combination horse/dog whisperer, private-eye, and good-ole-boy friend. I didn't want to put the book down and heartedly urged Gideon on to the breath-held conclusion.
