My favourite book is the novel "The Headless Horseman," written by a famous English writer Main Reed. To be honest, at first it was hard for me to read this book. But then I became so deeply attached to the heroes of the novel that I finished reading the novel "in one breath". I didn't notice how time flew, so much I wanted to know who would be the headless horseman that killed Henry Pointster. Of course, I was sure that the offender could not be Maurice mustanger - the main positive hero of the novel. This brave, strong and kind man loved Henry's sister Louise.It is important that Maurice has repeatedly shown his best side. For example, he saved Louise from death. First Maurice stopped the wild mustang that took Louise to the Prairie. And then he saved the girl from a herd of horses, killing the leader by a shot in the head. This is the episode in the novel I like, probably the most, because it represents Maurice as a real man.Louise learns that mustanger is not only a brave warrior, but an educated, well-read person. She falls in love with Maurice. But captain Cassius Colhoun, is also in love with Louise.There was a duel between the men, the winner was Maurice. Calhoun hates mustanger – he is ready to get rid of him at any cost. And soon the case turns up - Louise's brother Henry disappears. Suspicion falls on Maurice because there was an evidence. But mustanger's friend Zeb Stump helps to prove that Maurice is innocent and that the real killer is Colhoun.So the plot of the novel has a happy end for the main characters. Maurice is fully justified, he marries Louise. They live happily and their friends are near them both Zeb Stump and the servant Felim O'neill. And negative characters die one by one, getting what they deserved.The novel "The Headless Horseman" is the first work by Main Reed that I have read. I liked it so much that I will definitely get acquainted with other works of this famous English writer. I recommend you all to read this interesting novel.
