I read this March 2016, it had been suggested a few times at the Waterstones Book club. It was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize 2011
Set in the American Wild West, it follows 2 hired assassins Charlie and Eli Sisters. They are ruthless, lawless and on a mission. They are coming to the end of their career (well Eli wants to give up) and as brothers they have a sometimes love/hate relationship.
A story of wasted lives, brutality of frontiersmen lives, the triumph and tragedies of the 1849 San Francisco gold rush. Of love and family
I really enjoyed it...
9/10
