[Bodie 02] • Bodie 2

When Brand and Bodie arrive in San Francisco, searching for a kidnapped girl, The City By the Bay doesn’t exactly welcome them with open arms. But danger has never stopped these two before – not even when it comes in the form of a deadly Chinese Tong determined to extend its opium empire as far as the east coast.

The Tong might be ready and willing to stop anyone getting in its way, but Brand and Bodie have an ally in the shape of a friend from Brand’s past – Captain Richard Hunt, a British agent from Jamaica, who sided with Brand on a previous assignment.

Now all they have to do is bring the Tong, and its murderous criminal contact Milo Traeger, down.

It’s a tall order, but one thing is certain – San Francisco won’t forget the day Brand and Bodie brought their Two Guns West.

Neil Hunter is a pseudonym of the prolific Lancashire-born writer Michael R. Linaker. As Neil Hunter, Mike wrote two classic western series, BODIE THE STALKER and JASON BRAND. Under the name Richard Wyler he produced four stand-alone westerns, INCIDENT AT BUTLER’S STATION, THE SAVAGE JOURNEY, BRIGHAM’S WAY and TRAVIS. Another western, HIGH KILL, was later published in the SUNDANCE series as BOUNTY KILLER. His western output can also be found under the names ‘Dan Stewart’, ‘John C. Danner’ and ‘Frederick H. Christian’, the latter name employed when he ghost-wrote an additional five titles in Frederick Nolan’s popular FRANK ANGEL series. Mike has written three ‘nasty’ horror novels under his own name, but since the late 1980s has become best-known as one of the most popular contributors to Gold Eagle’s MACK BOLAN series, chronicling the adventures of PHOENIX FORCE, THE EXECUTIONER and STONY MAN, as well as his own action-adventure series, CADE.
