   About True Story Of Kill Or Be Killed In The Real Old West:

   OLD WEST GUNFIGHTER’S FORGOTTEN MEMOIR FOUND
   REVEALS TRUE STORY OF KILL OR BE KILLED SHOOTOUTS IN THE REAL WILD WEST

   Long forgotten memoir by one of the most feared (yet virtually unknown today) 1870’s Old West gunfighter, hired gun regulator and lawman was recently discovered hidden away in a stage coach trunk in abandoned barn near of all places – -Disney World in modern day Florida.

   This one-of-a-kind book is a time machine that takes you back and reveals the eye opening true story of what really went on in the Wild West’s: kill or be killed fast draw shootouts, hell-bent-for-leather outlaw chases, and lead dodging narrow escapes.

   So who was he?

   His name was Frank Eaton and he was known simply as: “Pistol Pete”

   Don’t be surprised if you’ve never heard of ‘em because you won’t find his name in any of today’s western history encyclopedias or glorified in movies or on TV.

   But make no mistake about it – -he was one of the most feared men of his time to ever buckle on a gun rig. And he holds nothing back – -using at times what would be considered today to be “politically incorrect” language – -to tell the eye opening true story of real Old West gunfighters, dedicated lawmen and astonishingly dangerous outlaws.

   “Pistol Pete” got his nickname when he was 15 years old because a family friend said he could: “Shoot the head off a snake with either hand.”

   And what makes his being such a dead shot really remarkable is he was born with a crossed right eye. But, he figured out a way to hit what he was aiming at without needing to sight down the barrel.

   Then, “Pistol Pete’s” West really gets wild.

   By the time he was 16 he’d mastered a thumbed, two-gun, high hip, cross-draw so lightening fast he gunned down a local bad hombre despite the troublemaker already having his Winchester:

   “Leveled, ready for business. But like a rattler, my hand went to my hip.”

   “Before his gun went off there were two forty-fives through his breast.”

   “He fell on his face on the ground with his gun under him.”

   From that day forward “Pistol Pete’s” reputation as: “The boy who packed the truest and fastest guns in Indian Territory” was born.

   And his future as a gunfighter was sealed. He would go on to carve 11 notches on his guns.

   “Pistol Pete” always lived the cowboy code of never going back on his word or backing down from a fight. And he carried his pair of loaded Colt .45 Peacemakers until he died peacefully in his bed at age 97.

   “Pistol Pete’s” memoir is a unique,one-of-a-kind, detailed, handbook that vividly describes how he survived all the years of face-down-in-the-street gunfights and shootouts where the odds of him walking away alive were slim because the deadly outcome was sure to be: ”

   “One of us will be slinging hash in hell tomorrow.”

   If you’ve ever wondered what it was like to strap on a six-gun ,walk out on to a dusty street in the frontier town of Tombstone or Dodge City and have a face-off-in-the-street gunfight where only the fastest gunslinger walks away – - then rare eyewitness account of what it was like to live and die in the Real Old West is a must read and only found at website:

   Author Bio:

   Howdy. My name is Jim Huebner. I’m a city slicker living in Ft. Lauderdale Florida. But I’m a cowboy at heart.

   And I’m crazy about the Old West as it really was. My wife calls me an “Old West junkie.”

   In particular, the gunfighters fascinate me.

   And maybe like me, you’ve read lots of material written ABOUT the real Old West. But, none of it gave you the feeling of actually being IN the real Old West.

   Well that changed for me when a bizarre series of events ( I dang near died) led me to stumble across this long forgotten, extremely rare, memoir by one of the Old West’s most feared – -but, virtually unknown today – - gunfighters and lawmen that reveals the brutally honest details of what it was like to live – - and die – - in the real, raw, Wild West of the 1870′s.

   I found this long lost memoir hidden away in a old stage coach trunk in an abandoned barn near of all places . . . Disney World in modern day Florida!

2. Ghostly Guardian (Volume One) (Witches of The Demon Isle, a Paranormal Teen Romance / Fantasy Series)

   About Ghostly Guardian (Volume One) (Witches of The Demon Isle, a Paranormal Teen Romance / Fantasy Series):

   Bewitching dreams,

   A mysterious damsel in distress,

   And a desperate ghost looking for a body to possess…

   Off the coast of New England is the Demon Isle, a place notorious for its weird stories, ghostly encounters and mythical creature sightings. It is New England’s hot spot for tourists; especially tourists interested in the supernatural and paranormal.

   What these tourists do not know… and what the long time locals do know… is that all the stories and rumors about The Demon Isle are true!

   But no magical hot spot can go unprotected! And neither does The Demon Isle, which has been under the watchful care of the Howard Witches since its inception. But protecting the island from its magical inhabitants and intruders can prove hard on a normal day, and today, is not one of those days! As the sheriff of The Demon Isle needs help solving a murder, one she fears is magical in nature.

   Michael Howard, a death reader, along with Charlie Howard (a little more than human) set off to help the sheriff of The Demon Isle solve this mystery when they meet a damsel in distress that turns out to be more than she appears.

   Meanwhile, their sister, Melinda, gifted with prophetic dreams, races against the clock to save the life of a dear family friend, currently haunted by a malevolent spirit in search of a body to possess. Melinda’s powers alone, however, will not be enough. She will need both of her brothers to save this friend’s life and banish this spirit.

   But when the moment comes to save her, they find the siblings suddenly have an unexpected choice to make: allow the possession, which might harm if not kill their friend, or to banish the spirit before it can pass on a message, which the spirit claims is from a deceased Howard witch.

3. The Cut-Out

   About The Cut-Out:

   LOGLINE: When the American called me up and said he wanted to talk, I never imagined he would tell me what he did: that someone of global renown, “within days from now”, would be assassinated. Why tell me? A low-key conspiracy journalist? I didn’t know. And quite frankly, I didn’t believe him, either—until the assassination happened…

   SYNOPSIS: Britain in the nineties was obsessed with the X-Files. The high street was awash with X-Files type magazines, and as senior editor of the biggest selling one on the market, I was accustomed to receiving phone calls from anonymous sources promising inside information. So when the American called me up and said he wanted to talk, I took it in my stride. Why wouldn’t I? He was a former Special Forces Green Beret, he said. A CIA runner. He also said that the information he had was best not divulged over the telephone. So we arranged to meet. Nothing unusual in that.

   What was unusual, though, was what the American told me, not at our first meeting, but at a subsequent one some months later. On this occasion he said he’d been made aware of an imminent prime-target assassination, that “one of the most prominent figures on the world stage” was about to be taken out, “within days from now”, though he claimed he was unable to reveal who the target was.

   “Watch the news networks. You’ll know who it is soon enough.” He added: “The media will tell you it was an accident. You’ll know it wasn’t.”

   I came away not knowing if I’d been fed a line or let in on the world’s most terrible secret. And I had no way of finding out, either, other than to wait, and watch the news.

   I didn’t have to wait long. Because a week later the “accident” the American had alluded to was all over the news: the assassination he’d forewarned me about had happened.

   Of course, at this stage I had no idea I was being set up. Only that I’d been told something I wished I’d never been told. And that, because I had, I now faced the most terrifying challenge of my life—to get to the truth before the intelligence agencies got to me…

   Author Bio:
   ME: I’m a published author and optioned screenwriter with a background in music and journalism (although it should be said my foray into the world of commas and colons was solely the result of my failure in the world of quavers and crotchets!).

   THE EDITOR: For a good chunk of the 1990s and early 2000s I was editor of the popular high street magazines, UFO Reality and Odyssey, an enterprise which led to the publication of my first ‘proper’ book, Cosmic Top Secret: The Unseen Agenda (Hodder & Stoughton ISBN: 0-340-70822-0).

   THE AUTHOR: Some of you, though, might know me best for my two top-selling books on the death of Princess Diana (Princess Diana: The Hidden Evidence and Princess Diana: The Evidence), both of which were published by SPI Books New York and penned with my co-author, John Beveridge.

   THE CUT-OUT: My latest book, The Cut-Out, is an autobiographical spy thriller based on the conspiracy surrounding Diana’s death and the unwitting role I was earmarked to play in that conspiracy. A film based on The Cut-Out is currently in development.
