“A series of murders, a Hollywood set transported to West Texas, and a smart, sexy cowboy hero—I can’t think of a better combination of elements for a killer read. Aaron Latham is back in the saddle in winning style in Riding with John Wayne. His insider knowledge of the movie business and big cowboy heart give us a witty, fast-paced, mysterious ride through the very wild west that he knows so well.
— Linda Fairstein, author of Death Dance
“Aaron Latham’s page-turning novel, Riding with John Wayne, is at once a love story, a murder mystery, and a funny exposé of the movie business in Hollywood and on location in West Texas. And it’s populated with odd-ball characters who add spice to the mix.”
— Larry L. King, author of In Search of Willie Morris“Riding with John Wayne is extraordinary entertainment. I read it in one sitting. The characters are rich. The story is compelling—and accurate. This novel describes the drama behind the making of a movie in exquisite detail.”
— David Brown, producer of A Few Good Men and Angela's Ashes“Hollywood and the Old West collide hilariously in this lively tale of cinematic skullduggery.”
