John T. Wayne Draws Readers Back in the Time of Cowboys, Treasures, and the Deceptions as He Relaunches “The Treasure del Diablo”

Arkansas – WEBWIRE



When Bobby Joe witnesses a murder, his life takes an unexpected turn.

 

Bobby Joe is isolated in an arid desert setting while looking for the fabled treasure del Diablo. When his last mule dies–he has no choice but to undertake the arduous journey to water and safety.

 

Bobby Joe makes the life-changing choice to assume the identity of a dead man after being saved by the man’s horse and discovering a letter from an uncle to the slain man. Taking control of someone’s life is never simple. However, Bobby Joe’s predicament is much more dangerous as he escapes assassination attempts, a hostile takeover, an Arizona Ranger on a mission for answers, and the widow of the deceased man who knows Bobby Joe isn’t who he claims to be.

 

He enlists the assistance of a ranch hand while taking over as the new owner of the Slash M, not giving up on his ambition of retrieving the treasure del Diablo. Will the treasure be discovered? Or will the lying surface first?

 

The book is a riveting story that thrusts readers into the life of an ordinary person and his extraordinary exploits set against the backdrop of the American Frontier. John showcases his talent for great storytelling and his ability to weave stories with extraordinary twists. Through Bobby Joe, readers gain entrance into the colorful lives of cowboys.

 

The book is well-received and has garnered positive reviews with one commenter saying:

 

“John T. Wayne’s writing makes it as if you were riding along with the cowboys in the novel. I find it very refreshing and hope he has many more western novels to come. I could see this making a great movie. Thanks, John! Keep them coming.” —Amazon customer.

NFRA examined the TAC’s Report and its recommendations and put out a Consultation Paper in June 2021 seeking public views/suggestions on the proposed steps NFRA was planned to take in this regard. The last date for submission of comments was 30 July 2021.

NFRA has received 17 comment letters from Stakeholders, which includes important Industry Bodies, Large Accounting Firms and Research/Academia among others. Overall, stakeholders have expressed support for NFRA’s proposals to proactively promote stakeholder engagement. NFRA has analysed all the public comments and has arrived at its conclusions on the way forward in respect of the issues posed in the Consultation Paper.
