Bat Lash

The Gambling Gentleman…

Bartholomew Aloysius Lash is a whole heap of trouble.  Gambler, Ladies man, and Scoundrel.

The son of a farmer and a teacher, Bat Lash is a cultured cowboy.  A cultured cowboy who became outlaw after his parent’s farm was swindled away.  Bat Lash was forced to kill a corrupt lawman which branded him as an outlaw.  An outlaw who was suddenly on his own as his parent’s were killed along with the parent’s of the woman he loved.  He left his sister and his girl in the hands of some nuns at a convent for their own protection and then went on a journey to find those responsible for the deaths that had come too soon.

Unfortunately for Bat Lash, he seemed to only find trouble where he went, never peace.
