Behind the Iron

Hank Fallon Western Series, Book 2

By: William W. Johnstone, J. A. Johnstone

Narrated by: A.T. Chandler

In this gripping thriller, America's greatest Western storytellers take you inside the dangerous world of an undercover agent - and the deadliest jail in America....

Hank Fallon knows what it's like to rot behind bars. To wallow in the filth of a rat-infested cell. To smell the pent-up rage of cutthroat killers and thieves. Fallon earned his freedom the hard way. He saved the lives of four guards, got released early, and became a detective. Then he went undercover, infiltrated a prison gang plotting to bust out - and barely made it out alive. Now they're sending him back. Behind the iron. Straight to hell...

This time, it's the ninth circle known as Missouri State Penitentiary. His mission: get inside the infirmary, look for a pregnant inmate named Jess Harper, and find out where her bank-robbing boyfriend hid the stolen cash. Problem is: a rebellion is brewing among the prisoners. Their rage is burning out of control. An all-out savage riot is about to explode. And Fallon's head is on the chopping block....

Great plot and character development. Good Read!

The plot was interesting and the development of characters is such that you remember the main participants clearly. This is a book worth reading and keeping for a second read.

Really packed.

This has to be my favorite of the dozens of Johnstone books. The mole is a wonderful character. Fallon is the hero we all love to read.

A Real Page-Turner!

This well written story kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish with a combination of action and suspense. The cliffhanger ending left me eager to read the next book.

really rough from start to finish

dark storyline, poorly read and overall below par performance overall. going to have to listen to a slash and pecks book to cleanse the palette after this nightmare.
