- This work is written not in the traditional western spirit. We are talking about a mercenary who guardes the Chandler’s shop with a gun. When the marshal himself said that I was no other than the murderer, I told him that I would leave Bostwick and try to start a new life without a gun. This is a great nigga, recommended for those who are looking for „something else” in the western genre.
