An Accidental Cowboy
by Jameson Parker
Price: $2.99 USD. 73070 words. Agented by Dystel and Goderich Literary Management on February 1, 2012. Nonfiction.
Not long after Simon & Simon went off the air, the author was shot twice and left for dead. Physically, he recovered fairly quickly. Psychologically, however, the effects were far more severe and long-lasting, sending him into a spiral of post-traumatic stress disorder and depression.
