There’s a killer out there, and there are plenty of likely suspects, including the bank’s greedy vice president and the slick-talking foreman of the Star Ranch.

Randall knows that his father, the town banker, didn’t kill himself, even if everybody in Briscoe says otherwise. There’s a killer out there, and there are plenty of likely suspects, including the bank’s greedy vice president and the slick-talking foreman of the Star Ranch. Whoever it is doesn’t want Jim discovering the truth and has hired a gunman to put him in a grave… right beside his father.
A rider swung into the empty main street of Tinaja. A striking picture in black, he dismounted and strode toward the nearest building, a cardboard in his hand. He tacked it to the wall and stood back to stare at his own likeness on a reward poster for the outlaw El Diablo Negro. Cowpoke Perry Wayne and El Diablo were one and the same person. Perry had come to Tinaja to blast out a clever and dangerous crook. The only way he could do it was to use the crippling fear of El Diablo. But Perry had to move fast and carefully…his disguise as the famous outlaw made him bullet-bait for every gun-hawk in the wild west.
Somewhere on a God-forsaken, dusty ranch is a lost billfold containing $60,000… in this western classic, back in print for the first time in 80 years.
Four incredible, rip-roaring western novels, out-of-print for decades, now in one action-packed volume.
Ex-buffalo hunter and former lawman Kirk Calloway is searching for a woman he briefly met on the trail in Kansas…a romantic quest that takes him into a violent corner of New Mexico, where the railroad has brought in rustlers, bushwhackers, spoilers, cowpunchers and cattlemen all hoping to find their fortune amidst by the sweat, tears and bloodshed of the savage, crimson mesas. And it’s where Alfredo Baca, the fearless young aristocrat and cattleman, wears the lawman’s badge and thrives perilously on the risk and danger…and will either become Calloway’s friend or deadly enemy.
Jeff Lantry was a man who lived on his luck… mostly on riverboat casinos… and his luckiest day was when he was penniless and stumbles on a lynched bank robber’s hidden loot. He rides into Durango with money in his pockets, which he uses to become a successful cattleman. But he never loses the sense of guilt that his life is built not just on luck… but on a lie. The six-gun he wears is strictly for show, until Jess Jallison gives him thirty days to sell out… and get out. But even though he isn’t a gunman, Lantry won’t back down or run, not with his reputation and fortune at stake, or his demons to battle.
