About R.J. Sloane

"From watching John Wayne and Clint Eastwood westerns with dad on lazy Sunday afternoons to researching Arizona Rangers and territorial history, R.J. Sloane brings authentic frontier knowledge to every story. Inspired by Longmire and Yellowstone, these aren't just westerns—they're historically grounded adventures where doing what's right often means defying what's legal."

    "Sloane rides the river with legends like Zane Grey and Larry McMurtry. Blood Justice is gritty, unforgettable, and refreshingly clean."
