Caught in a land war, two gunmen are forced to shoot their way out
A bloated dead cow bakes in the hot desert sun. This grisly omen is the first creature Trinity and Billy Raglan have seen since they stepped onto the deserted Bar-D Ranch, a desolate stretch of country that their boss has purchased for reasons known only to him. Sent to clear out the property after the former owner refuses to vacate, they detect no signs of life--until a sniper's bullet breaks the silence. Trinity and Billy have walked into a shooting war.
This is the opening engagement in a battle that could determine the fate of the territory. As Boss Clark fights three factions for control of the seemingly worthless land, Billy and Trinity find themselves caught in the crossfire. Their only routes of escape involve traversing an endless stretch of deadly desert . . . or shooting their way to freedom.
Paul Joseph Lederer wrote more than 250 novels, many of them Westerns. He was born in Ocean Beach, CA, attended San Diego State University, served in the United States Air Force during the Vietnam War, and lived in La Mesa, CA, until he passed away in 2016.
It is kind of hard to review these Western by Paul Lederer. They just are good to read in my opinion and that with dollar might get you a cup of coffee. There is action in them and the plot isn't too bad either. The characters in them come across as ordinary people that work for a living. They don't have super powers in fact the hero sometimes takes a few lumps for his efforts, but he will do what is right. So grab a copy and ride the range.
