Fifteen-year-old Gareth had never walked beyond the town square his entire life. He considered his world to be the norm and meekly endured beatings, which his father called righteous punishment. And now he finds himself face to face with the embodiment of evil. But what if Gareth has already felt the taste of freedom and learned a different life? Marion Brunet masterfully writes in a variety of genres. Thrillers, detective stories, westerns - all her books are published by major French publishing houses. In 2018, Marion received the Grand Prize for a Detective Novel, and for “Without Faith and Law” - the 2019 Golden Nugget at the Montreuil Book Fair. 5 reasons to buy the book “Without Faith and Law”: • A gift to all Western lovers: golden spurs, loneliness on the prairie, the chase and the struggle for one’s own freedom; • At the same time, this is a modern parable about the closedness of society, hypocrisy and the relativity of the rules imposed by society. And how important it is to remember this and try to look beyond your information bubble; • The novel is told from the perspective of a fifteen-year-old pastor’s son. The father is the standard of morality, the all-seeing eye, the punishing fist. What is it like for a humble boy to find himself among wandering cowboys?• The main character is a notorious robber with golden spurs. Gradually, behind the façade of the “beast” Stenson, a fragile but full of courage creature is revealed; • In the novel there are no good and bad, no strong and weak. Even Stenson, the embodiment of strength and freedom, relinquishes this role, praising the strength of those who take on the responsibility of settling down and raising children.
