This book just got ten times better in my opinion. Inman and the preacher set out the next day walking. Up the road, they find a man by the name of Junior. He has a bull that is upstream from his house and is laying in the river dead. They help him get the bull out of the river so that Junior's water is not contaminated. Junior greatly appreciates their help and ask them to go to his house for dinner and a place to stay. They decide to go there and when Junior goes to attend to some business, Inman finds himself sitting in a kitchen chair with Junior's "wife" on the table straddling him. Junior walks in and immediately blames Inman even though his wife is a whore. When Junior arrives, he takes Inman and the preacher outside to where The Guard is waiting for them. They are chained up along with about ten others. The Guard sets out on a walk and a couple days into the journey, they decide to shoot their prisoners. The Guard then throws the prisoners in the ditch but Inman wasn't dead. Inman decided to go and get revenge on Junior. He set out and walked back to Junior's house, opened the kitchen door, and beat him over the head with a LeMat. I like reading that kind of stuff. Violence in books catch my eyes. I mean I don't blame Inman, I'd go hunt somebody down too if they turned on me. But, with Inman being injured from The Guard's firing squad, what is he going to do now? Is he going to make it? I do not think that I would be able to walk miles with a wound in my neck and a gouge in my head from a grazed bullet.
This is a LeMat revolver. Inman knocked this over Junior's head a couple times for payback. Ouch.
