Legend of Panther Holler

“The best stories always become legends” Annie Cole's sweeping western saga follows gambler and gunslinger Vick Porter and his family over three generations from the back-wood hollers of Arkansas in the mid 1800's to the saloons and card rooms of West Texas, the bayous and brutal prisons in Louisiana and through the epic changes of the American frontier into the dawn of the 20th Century. Vick's nemesis, the conniving, insidious con-man and gambler Buck Dupree, teaches Vick the detailed techniques of a professional card-sharp, but becomes threatened by his student that can not only out play him but is a masterful hand with a gun, making him a double threat. Once Buck realizes he's created his own worst enemy, he double-crosses Vick dooming him to an unimaginably horrific future. Struggle and survival, loss and ruin, victory and achievement and a refusal to never give up-these are the harsh realities, yet the rewarding currencies of the American West. Can anything save Vick and his kin from sabotage and ruin? Can love? Can family? Can revenge? Vick Porter and his family are what legends are made of....
