Review
"If Lisbeth Sallander took a a lesson in female empancipation from Tura Satana, she would maybe have ended up something like Jezebel, the flint-assed, funny and endearingly fallible lead in Danny Hogan's fable for our times" --Cathi Unsworth author of The Not Knowing, The Singer and Bad Penny Blues
"Good characters, nice sense of place. A lively, fun, pulpy romp"
--Alan Guthrie author of Bye Bye Baby, Killing Mum, Slammer and Two-Way Split

Product Description
The third novella from Danny Hogan is soon to hit the stands. Set fifty years into an uncertain future, an unnamed apocalypse has sent civilization two hundred years into the past. The once proud state of Texas has been literally returned to its wild west origins.
Enter a gunfighter, Jezebel Misery St. Etienne, young and vicious. Although she will do anything to escape an honest day's labour she is righteous of heart and strong of spirit. From her home in Austin she is called upon to escort a girl called Alice across the badlands of East Texas, filled with savage mutants and evil outlaws, to Houston. Little does she know that Alice is seeking vengeance against the posse that decimated her family, and that by the end, it will be Jezebel herself who will be seeking that vengeance. Her and her old .44.
