Jean Henry Mead's novel Escape is a powerful story of a young woman who hides her identity from outlaws. The author writes lyrically of Wyoming settlers and rough men who ran wild on the frontier. She brings courage, conviction and spiritual beauty to this fine story. Richard S. Wheeler, award-winning author The stage is set for nonstop action in this debut novel by Jean Henry Mead with its delightful blend of western fiction and Wyoming history. The dialogue rings true and is peppered with humor, making for a thoroughly enjoyable read. The early introduction and resulting misadventures of Tom "Peep" O'Day (who is eventually blamed for the bungled bank robbery of Belle Fourche, South Dakota) adds a wonderful balance to the storyline and offers an interesting insight into members of the wild bunch. An added bonus is the epilogue which details each gang member's fate. If it's a wild ride you're looking for, Escape will take you on an adventure that will leave you breathless.
