Conspiracy
The Trial of Oliver Lee and James Gililland
By W. Michael Farmer
A Novel Based On A True Story
It is Pat Garrett’s last big case. An eight-year old boy is murdered. A deadly shootist is accused By Yankee Republicans, defended By Texas Democrats. The evidence is all circumstantial. The territory claims a murder conspiracy by the defendants. The defendants claim a territorial conspiracy for an unjust verdict. A wrong move by either side and blood will flow. New Mexico statehood will be set back fifty years. It is The trial of the century.
“Conspiracy offers a dramatic, realistic take on a chapter of
American western history that is often neglected; and with the
presence of Pat Garrett, slayer of Billy the Kid, that seems
impossible. W. Michael Farmer’s recreation of the tense and tragic
events surrounding the ultimate betrayal of the frontier ideal reads like the great novel it is, with all the tantalizing detail of thoroughly Researched history.”
Loren D. Estleman, author
Of The Branch and The Scaffold
”Conspiracy crackles with tension and intrigue as the Old West comes to life. You can smell the leather and hear the gunshots in the air as you read. It's a truly fun historical work.”
Christine Barber, author
Of The Replacement Child
