Escape from Five Shadows

Elmore Leonard: Escape from Five Shadows (USA 2019)

From the Publisher:
New York Times bestselling author Elmore Leonard's classic western tale of a wrongly convicted man willing to go to desperate measures for a chance at freedom.

Wrongly convicted and imprisoned in the brutal labor camp at Five Shadows, Corey Bowen is an innocent man. The camp is run by a sadistic embezzler willing to kill to keep his scheme running. But Bowen is determined to break out or die trying. The trackers have already caught him once, dragged him back through the mesquite and rocks, and beat him near death after his last attempt. This time, he'll have help from a lady with murder on her mind and a debt to pay back. They say that breaking out of Five Shadows is impossible, but Bowen is a different breed—and this time he will go to any extreme to escape.

"Leonard has penned some of the best western fiction ever." - USA Today

It was supposed to be impossible. No man could break out of the brutal convict labor camp at Five Shadows. Until they locked up Bowen. He was like dynamite--charged to go off, to explode out of that desert hell so he could clear his name. Already the deadly trackers have caught him, dragged him back through the mesquite and rocks, beat him and left him to rot in the punishment cell. But they can't stop Bowen. He's a different breed, a man who will go to any extreme to escape. Any extreme.

Escape from Five Shadows

Elmore Leonard: Escape from Five Shadows (USA 1957)

From the Publisher:
He would live as a free man or not at all...
Corey Bowen was used to picking up work wherever chance and his last dollar left him. So the trail drive job had seemed all right -- just a small herd to be moved a hundred miles. But two days later he had been arrested for cattle rustling and was on his way to prison.

In the convict labor camp where he served his time, Bowen carefully made his plans for escape and waited for his chance. Any kind of a chance would do. Anything was better than six years of waiting. Even if he didn't make it.

Escape from Five Shadows

Elmore Leonard: Escape from Five Shadows (USA 1956)

From the Publisher:
This was a prison camp that would embitter even the most hardened convict. Run by an unscrupulous and sadistic tyrant for his own personal gain, it was a place of scorching sun, sweat, sudden death and simmering hate. It was guarded by white men's shotguns and by a hand of Mimbreno Apaches who were paid to bring in escaped convicts. Even the men who ran the camp would not leave.

For Corey Bowen, framed on a cattle-rustling charge, there was only one course of action - escape. Escape at any cost, even if he had to match the cruel brutality of the guards and his fellow inmates.

Given the breaks, Bowen had the courage and resourcefulness to put his plan through, but escape depended on a woman and for all his acquired hardness he wasn't a basically ruthless man. Sometimes it might appear that a scrap of decendy could lead to a man's downfall especially when the sputter of a fuse was inching closer to a charge of dynamite. Bowen knew this, but he had to play the game according to his own rules.

Elmore Leonard has already proved his talent for sharp clean writing and vivid character portrayal in The Bounty Hunters and The Law at Randado. He has now come up with another novel of action and suspense that will delight admirers of first-class Westerns.

Elmore Leonard: Escape from Five Shadows. Cambridge, Mass.: Houghton Mifflin / The Riverside Press, 1956, 213 p., $2.75.
