Spur Giant: Soiled Dove
This was a good read that keeps your interest and attention from a to z. Action and adventure that just doesn't let up,along with the side action by Spur makes a good read even better

This is another adult Western series much the same as the more famous Longarm books. Fairly standard fare - the MC rolls into town, solves the crime, beds a few ladies (one of whom is the title soiled dove) and then rides off to the next adventure.
