Jess Williams #94
Martha Heller
Jess and Wildcat go separate ways after hunting down the Whittaker gang. He begins his hunt for the slippery killer, Buck Benson. He locates him in the town of Starkey, Texas, but he’s going by the name of Harry Black. He’s now married and has a young son. The people of the town have even elected him as the mayor and, by all accounts, he is a very generous man. Jess finds himself in a quandary regarding this man who has no memory of his past life.
Jess decides to hunt his next man, Rick Gale, but he receives an urgent message from the schoolmarm, Martha Heller. He drops everything and heads straight to Harrison, Texas. The marshal of the town ends up wounded badly and Jess pins on his United States Marshals badge to enforce the law there. Jess is in love with Martha, but knows that he can’t act on his feelings until he hangs up his guns and retires.
That isn’t going to happen anytime soon.

One of the better efforts by Thomas featuring Jess Williams. Martha Heller is a school teacher from a previous novel. She sends a telegram to Jess asking for his help with some unruly ranch hands. Jess was smitten by her charms in the earlier book and that continues in this one. Add Jess' usual bounty hunting work and you wind up with a normal Williams thriller. Does involve a twist concerning one of the people he's been hunting.

Good story
I enjoyed this book because it shows the human side of Jess Williams. I glad the author brought back the school teacher for this book. I hope you will bring her back every so often.

Matter Heller
I have read all of Robert's books as well as Louis La Mour and the whole Smoke Jenson's series. I know that it's hard to replace the original you do well but it does miss a certain flair.
