Revolver by Marcus Sedgwick
Reading Level: 5.2
AR Points: 5
Outside their remote Scandinavian village, Sig’s father dies of exposure trying to rush home across a frozen lake. Soon a hulking man arrives at the shack with a Colt revolver, demanding his share of a stolen wealth of gold. But Sig has his own Colt hidden in the storeroom, plus some questions. Who is this man? Is there really a hidden treasure? And, most importantly, can he bring himself to use that revolver to save himself and his family?
This is a "guy's book" that everyone can enjoy. The story sucks you in as you try to guess whether the father really did steal the gold, and whether Sig will outwit the stranger. ***** 5 Stars
