Jim Head is a writer from Weippe, Idaho, and a lifelong member
of the Wesleyan Church. His Circuit Rider Mysteries series follows
Reverend Elias Cane — a Methodist circuit rider and former Civil War
sergeant — across the American West of the 1880s, where the Gospel travels
on horseback and justice is rarely simple.
His background gives the series its theological backbone. His
protagonist carries a Bible and a Colt, preaches in revival tents and
desert missions, and believes — sometimes against the evidence — that
God is still at work in broken places.
