"Was it vengeance, hate, or just plain cussedness that brought John Cameron back to Wolf Springs? Whatever it was, it meant trouble and bloodshed - something the townsfolk wanted to avoid at all costs. They'd been reduced to a quaking band of yellowbellies by Sid Mason and his rough-riding cohorts and feared being caught in the crossfire of a range war certain to erupt if Cameron stayed. From his cold reception in town, Cameron reckoned that his only ally in the coming battle to regain his land, his cattle, and his girl would be found in his holster. He'd expected as much and wasn't fool enough to discount the odds against him, though he hoped that a few of the independent ranchers would throw in with him if only to stave off Mason's relentless drive to turn the whole valley into his private domain. Regardless of the help he did or did not receive, Cameron's purpose was clear, his resolve fixed. He had a score to settle and would see it through - to the bloody end. Sid Mason had built up his immense Muleshoe spread by coercion and theft. Now one man alone swore to stand up to Mason in a war that threatened to set the whole territory ablaze"-- Provided by publisher

He said his name was John Rutledge, and it had all started out as a simple favor -- the return of a body to the ranch where the dead man had once been employed. But the circumstances of the killing -- a cold-blooded gun-down -- and the ominous parting words of the dead man's buddy made Rutledge wonder if there were going to be more serious consequences to his good deed than he had bargained for.

Prolific author and Old West historian Ray Hogan has created a gripping tale of feuds and blood bonds in the dangerous, untamed territory of nineteenth-century New Mexico.

Two western stories: 'Texas Flat' is the scene of an ill-fated cattle drive attempt to help small ranchers break the control of a large cattle rancher. 'Rinneger' finds Cole trying to fulfill his brother's dying wish to return the money Harvey stole from a bank while others try to stop him and keep the money for themselves.

Special U.S. Marshal John Rye, better known as the "Doomsday Marshal," was very good at what he did. His name was both feared and respected wherever he traveled. But for every decent citizen who would aid Rye in his task of bringing a killer to justice, there seemed to be an outlaw who would welcome the chance to shoot him in the back.

"A drifter who had learned the hard way that it's easier to run away than to stand and fight feels compelled to help a young woman and her brother who are being harassed by a greedy, murderous rancher who aims to have their ranch"--

In "Ryker," Jake Ryker reluctantly works at his brother Tom's ranch when Tom becomes paralyzed; and in "Law Comes to Lawless," John Glyde accepts the position of sheriff in the town of Lawless only to find himself pitted against Cole Westcott and his gunmen.
