Trail of Madness Cover.jpg

"Trail of Madness takes the reader on a dark journey into the mind of the man who killed Wild Bill Hickok in a rip-roaring Western that smoothly blends fact and fiction into a gritty and compelling story."

 

Michael Zimmer

Author of the Wrangler Award-winning novel, The Poacher’s Daughter.

​

​​​​

"Michael Knost explodes into the Western genre with a tour de force, a gripping yarn that takes a famous historical event and undoes everything we thought we knew about it. Highly recommended."

 

Jeff Mariotte

Author of the Cody Cavanaugh western trilogy and cofounder of Silverado Press.

​​​

​​

"Michael Knost's Trail of Madness has more twists and turns than a sidewinder. A masterful mixture of traditional western, mystery, suspense, and the true-life account of one of the most notorious assassins in Old West history. It is frontier storytelling at its finest!"

​

Ronald Kelly

Author of Timber Gray and The Saga of Dead-Eye  series.
