Book Description
A keen judge of horseflesh takes a wild ride in this suspenseful new Western by USA Today bestselling author Ralph Cotton Two deputies fresh from a hard-won gunfight with the gang of notorious outlaw Dolan Coyle stroll into a saloon in the dusty little town of Broken Hat, inquiring after one Will Summers. The men are looking to swap out their exhausted horses, and they could use extra men, too. Just on the outskirts of town, Axel Coyle waits with the remnants of his brother’s crew, ready to shoot down the men who captured their leader. The deputies offer Summers a paid position in the posse escorting Dolan into federal custody. If they only knew how well acquainted the horse trader once was with the killer chained up out front, they might second-guess their proposal. Dolan had chosen a reckless trail for himself, like Summers and many others had done in their early years. Summers could not say exactly what had directed him off that trail before it managed to settle into his blood, but he’s grateful. He just doesn’t know if that resolution will hold now that his past has landed on him out of a clear blue sky… More than four million Ralph Cotton books in print!

Book Description
George is a young man exploring the West when he comes upon a small town called The Corners. What he didn’t expect from this little town was to fall in love, or how desperately this love would ravage him. Blinded by love he will be dragged into Machiavellian plots, hired to do a rich man’s killing. It is a complicated and tragic affair, where the power of love and lust can at once flip the plot on its head. ‘Gunman’s Reckoning’ is a nigh Shakespearean tale of innocence, manipulation and tragedy. If you loved Liam Neeson’s ‘Seraphim Falls’ you will love this dramatic epic. Max Brand, the pseudonym of Frederick Schiller Faust (1892-1944) was an American author of Western’s and pulp fiction stories. He was a prolific author of nigh on a hundred books, in several series spanning many genres. His character, Dr. Kildare, has been adapted several times over the decades in film, radio, T.V and comics. As well as that, he is credited with keeping the passion for the Wild West alive in his dozens of spell-binding novels. Brand’s untimely passing was another hallmark of his dedication to writing, keen to write a war novel he got himself assigned as a war correspondent with an American battalion in Italy, where he was sadly killed by shrapnel. His best known works include the series "Dan Barry", "Ronicky Doone", "Silvertip", "Dr. Kildare", and "Tizzo the Firebrand".

Book Description
Infamous gunslinger Wes Longbaugh is heading for his next job in Utah when he comes across a traveller cast afoot in Nevada's arid Humboldt Sink. Never one to turn the other cheek when help is needed, Wes intercepts the staggering loner. It turns out that Mace Farlow was the sole outlaw to survive a stagecoach robbery that had gone badly awry. All the other robbers had been gunned down due to the treachery of a turncoat. Mace tags along with his saviour but is determined to track the double-crosser down. Fate, however, takes a hand when trouble in the next town leads to flight and a stand off in a lonely canyon where Mace is killed. Before he dies, the aging outlaw makes his young sidekick promise to abandon the precarious life of a gunslinger. But this is far harder to achieve than Wes could ever have imagined.

Book Description
AND THE LAST SHALL BE FAST Lawrence Shaw once got a boost out of being the quickest gun alive. Now he’s partial to telling gunfighter stories rather than living them. But that doesn’t stop every ornery shootist with an itchy trigger finger from trying to pull iron on Fast Larry Shaw…or a group of gamblers from wagering five grand on who will kill him…or a gang of cutthroat saddle tramps from slaying his wife while in search of him. Racked with guilt for not saving his beloved, Shaw vows to shorten the life expectancy of her murderers—and any other hardcase who even thinks of sending hot lead his way.

Book Description
Some men look to keep the peace. Others look to make trouble. But sometimes even the most law-abiding of men are compelled to cross the line.... Easy Bill Gates is just such a man—as quick with a smile and as slow to anger as Gary Cooper in High Noon. He’s a model of restraint...until he’s forced to strap on a holster and kill the outlaw who murdered his brother. But more than his honor is at stake. A ruthless land baron is out to grab Bill’s ranch and he’s hired a gang of gunslingers to get Bill out of the way. Between the rancher who wants to take his land, and the young guns who want to take his life, Easy Bill will have to make some hard choices—and fast draws—to avoid becoming just another notch in the Gunman’s Tally. Hailing from the western states of Nebraska, Oklahoma and Montana, Hubbard grew up surrounded by grizzled frontiersmen and leather-tough cowboys, counting a Native American medicine man as one of his closest friends. When he chose to write stories of the Old West, Hubbard didn’t have to go far to do his research, drawing on his own memories of a youth steeped in the life and legends of the American frontier. Also includes the Western adventure, Ruin at Rio Piedras, the story of a young cowboy kicked off a ranch for falling in love with the owner’s daughter...only to devise a whip-smart plan to win the day—and the girl. “Outstanding.” —Midwest Book Review

Book Description
A wounded gunslinger fights for his life in this collection of three classic stories from one of the most popular Western authors of all time! Luck is initially on Cheyenne’s side in “Gunman’s Bluff,” as he manages to kill one Martin brother and wound the other in a shootout. But in the process, Cheyenne himself is shot in the shoulder, and it will be a while before he’ll have use of his right hand. But with the Martin family immediately out for revenge, Cheyenne doesn’t have time to heal, and he’ll need more than just one good hand to keep him alive. “Torridon” tells the story of Paul Torridon, raised from the age of seven by his family’s archrivals, the Bretts. Over the years the hatred between the local clans slows to a simmer, until one day a majestic Brett family colt becomes a one-man horse . . . to none other than Paul Torridon! Finally, in the title story, wealthy rancher Oliver Lane is believed to be near death. Lane’s will calls for his entire fortune to be passed along to his drifter nephew, Sandy Lane, but only if Sandy should return before a set date. After that, it’s all up for grabs for Henry Barnes, and Barnes is not one to leave such matters to chance! Max Brand has been captivating audiences for generations with his vivid tales of wild frontier exploits. Gunman’s Rendezvous finds the legendary author in top form, spinning three edge-of-your-seat stories that find rugged heroes in life-and-death situations.
