Jack Black #3
Lawless
Marshal One-Eyed Jack Black is on the move to Arizona. Cochise County is being run by a gang of outlaws posing as lawmen, and the U.S. Marshal's office has sent Jack to capture the scoundrels and secure the silver shipments from Pierce city. Returning to the home of his youth, the marshal has to deal with demons from his dark past – that and put an end to the reign of terror that Buford Blue Duck has been cursing the county with for the last thirty years. Marshal Black is wearing the tin star, though, so he schemes to put an end to it all. Action, drama and a touch of mystery along with lots of Old West history is the combination Ash Lingam has created in his latest Western adventure.

About the author
Ash Lingam
197 books22 followersAsh Lingam was born and raised in Southern Ohio, not far from the mighty Ohio River. He had somewhat of an isolated upbringing on a family farm with his sisters. His best friends were his horse, Sugar, and his grandfather.
Born in 1886, the family patriarch grew crops, raised cattle, and doted on the young boy. At his grandfather’s side, Ash learned about livestock and firearms at an early age. His grandad carried an old Colt with him at all times, helping spawn a young boy’s dreams of yesteryear.
Ash was only eight years old when his grandad taught him how to trap muskrats to prevent them from draining the farm’s ponds. He gave him a double-barreled shotgun at twelve and taught him how to hunt to put food on the table.
It wasn’t long before Ash was breaking horses. His spirited Tennessee Walker never allowed any other rider on her back. Together, they searched through the plowed fields in the spring, looking for Miami Indian arrowheads to add to his grandfather’s ample collection.
Ash’s family was among the early settlers in pre-Revolutionary America. He has traced his lineage back to around 1746 when his ancestors immigrated from Europe to the aspiring American Colonies.
A retired marketing executive, Ash devotes his spare time to training police dogs and writing novels. He has found his niche in the Western, historical fiction, and adventure genres. With his vast vault of experience, he never runs out of sources for new stories. He has lived in eleven different countries and worked in a total of forty-six,
To date, Ash has written approximately 130 novels, short stories, and poems. More than one hundred of his eclectic titles help the American frontier come alive for his readers.

Marshal Jack Black rides again!
Marshal Black is sent to Arizona to bring crooked lawmen to justice and to stop a gang led by a renegade Indian. While there he calls upon his skills to fight off five Apache warriors and their Cherokee leader and finds out the fate of his wife and child kidnapped long ago. He is the same old Jack- all sass and spunk. I enjoyed all three books in this series.
