Summary "The Man-Killers" by Dane Coolidge is a novel written in the early 20th century. Set in the rugged backdrop of the American West, it follows the tense encounters between various characters embroiled in feuds, hold-ups, and power struggles, particularly focusing on the interactions of two dangerous factions: the Scarborough brothers and the Bassett gang. The story centers around Hall McIvor, a man caught in the middle of these conflicts, who faces the danger of being mistaken for a criminal he is not. At the start of the book, readers are introduced to an imminent confrontation in Deadman Canyon, where Hall McIvor finds himself ensnared by the treacherous Scarborough brothers after a mistaken identity. As they attempt to extract information from him, Hall displays courage and a strong will, rejecting their threats and asserting his intentions. During this opening segment, the reader is thrust into a world of tension, danger, and moral conflicts, with a hint of a larger narrative surrounding the feud between various characters, raising questions about loyalty, honor, and survival amidst lawlessness. The dynamics between the characters set the stage for the unfolding drama within this lawless frontier. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
