Brothers in the Night Paperback – May 13, 2025

" I liked the book very much. It’s well written, moves fast, with vivid characters and interesting settings. The dialog is great.... a fantastic first novel." - Douglas Preston, Co-Author of the NY Times Best Selling Agent Pendergast and Nora Kelly series.

"Brothers in the Night is both a fast moving novel where guns and the law are involved, and it's a novel that interrogates American manhood. Mulcahy has a sense of the American West and of the struggle against the raw New Mexico landscape. You feel like you've ridden hard all night." - Kate Gale, Author of Under a Neon Sun

Brothers, rebels, outcasts since the day they were born. Growing up poor in Northern New Mexico, half Irish, half Mexican, Jude and Billy only had each other to rely on. Both brothers eventually choose different paths to carve out their stake and flee their past.

Billy returns home a reluctant WWII hero. Jude, once a feared marshal and gunfighter, has now settled down as a family man and lawyer. Neither quite recognize the other until a kindle from Billy’s past sets their present life aflame sending the brothers on a cross country journey dodging the law, the Ku Ku Klan and taking dead aim at the ruthless Pinkerton Agency who turned their lives upside down.

Along the way, their rugged bond will be tested. Jude’s obligation to save his brother while jeopardizing his own wife and children. Billy’s guilt-ridden fear that he is inherently broken and not worth saving. This creates a sharp tension between the two brothers when they need each other most...
