New Writer and Book: Big River by TC Cutter

Here is a novel by a new writer, Tom Cutter.

Tom has crafted an interesting novel about a young man’s chaotic journey from a boy, growing up in Missouri, into manhood in Utah. The story takes place in the Pre-Civil War West as the country was getting its legs and feeling its oats.

I hope you enjoy reading it as much as did.

Along the way Ed meets a handful of memorable characters in his quixotic quest for wealth; has life-defining experiences including war and love; and, two decades after his flight, eventually attempts to come to terms with his violent self.
