The Sheriff of River Bend

Jim Connor was born James Atlantic O'Connor: an average height, lean but muscular man of thirty-five years of age. He spent some years roaming the country working at ranches and living by his wits. He used poker to finance his own lifestyle before returning to his hometown, River Bend, Wyoming. Circumstances led him to become the sheriff when the incumbent retired and he undertook the task of bringing some lawbreakers to justice.

Gordon S. Dickson

Gordon S. Dickson was born near Inverness, Scotland, but left there soon after when the family returned to Northern Ireland. He was educated at secondary and grammar schools and scraped through 'O' level English, as essay writing was not a strong point. He was employed for many years in the Civil Service but is now retired and has recently taken up writing novels. The Sheriff of River Bend is his second novel. He enjoys reading, gardening, cinema and going to the gym, occasionally, and of course writing. His first novel was Verdict Unknown: A Tale of Murder and Revenge.
