About this listen
The Reno brothers were well known by the North and South during America's Civil War as daring, fearless, inventive, and cagey guerilla fighters. After the war, however, they felt useless. It wasn't long before the Reno brothers decided to reignite their fame by making world history and robbing the first peace-time train. From there they proceeded to baffle authorities with their ingenuity. There was nothing left for Indiana to do but call in the legendary Allan Pinkerton, America's greatest detective.
Pinkerton said, "I could always recognize a Reno job - if I couldn't figure how it was done - then I knew who had done it. That was the signature of the Reno brothers!"
Humor! Heart! History! These are the three words that define this fast-paced book of historical fiction. The turbulent relationship they had with one another, plus their inept romantic adventures take the listener on a wild ride while examining questions of crime and punishment in what some are calling "the first psychological western."
