The Twelve Lives of Samuel Hawley by Hannah Tinti

5.0

Samuel Hawley is a tough hired hand with twelve scars from twelve bullets he's caught throughout his life, and Hannah Tinti has written twelve thrilling and captivating chapters to tell the tale behind each scar. But she's also interwoven those chapters with the present-day story of Samuel's teenage daughter, Loo, and the tender but fraught relationship they have. Hannah Tinti is not only a master of suspense, but also setting the scene with characters that are actually sympathetic and worth rooting for. I can't remember the last time I zipped through almost four hundred pages so quickly.
