HOLLYWOOD IN THE 1920s, WHERE THE GLITZ AND GLAMOR OF THE SILENT MOVIE ERA CONCEALS DARK AND DANGEROUS SECRETS, AND ONE OLD COWBOY USES FRONTIER CUNNING AND GUN-SKILL TO UNCOVER THE TRUTH AND DELIVER JUSTICE IN THIS COLLECTION OF HARD-BOILED MYSTERY STORIES.

From Lucas Hallam’s first appearance in Hallam—where a cowboy who has outlived the days of the Old West becomes a gun-toting private eye and stuntman in the early days of motion pictures in California—to Hollywood Flesh—where Hallam’s most recent case is starting to give him nightmares—Hallam is told as a larger-than-life character.

He tangles with killers, solves mysteries, battles against grievous transgressions, and enjoys memorable moments with his friends while working as a riding extra in a colorful portrait of Hollywood during one of its golden ages.

In each short story, readers will begin questioning … Will Hallam win over evil by the end … or has he finally reached the end of the trail? Order your copy now and find out!

Hallam Collection: A Lucas Hallam Short Fiction Collection includes Hallam, The Blue Burro, Pictures in the Stars, Medicine Tongue, Ladysmith, and Hollywood Flesh.

Collection of short stories from the Lucas Hallam Mysteries, Old cowboy in the new West!

Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2022

LJ Washburn – Lucas Hallam Mystery – Lucas Hallam Short Fiction Collection – Reviewed 3/11/22 – Read 3/6-7/22

This book is a collection of stories about Lucas Hallam, the Old West cowboy that had lived and survived many a shootout, worked as a Texas Ranger, and leaned against many a bar, hefting the drink of choice for the day. Now he has moved into the next century and obtained his Private Investigator license, but he works as an extra on movies to supplement his income. They never have to supply him with clothes as he has all of those in his closet and prefers to use his own. Using the same gun that had taken down many of an owlhoot and numerous times had saved his life.

Join Lucas as he takes on PI cases and continues his movie extra jobs…

What did I like? This book is like looking at two different worlds, the past and the future. Many cases are made just for Lucas, requiring him to use his frontier knowledge to get the job done.

What will you like? Exciting, glamourous, mysterious, and dangerous. The exciting cases with some heart-stopping moments will get your imagination in gear for the Lucas Hallam way of getting things done. Don’t miss this fantastic collection of short stories in LJ Washburn’s “Hallam: A Lucas Hallam Short Fiction Collection,” which is available NOW!!!
