Dory Returns
It’s 1869 in the New Mexico Territory and the frontier legend of Dory McLee is only growing. The farm girl is as skilled at riding, shooting and chasing criminals as much as her male counterparts.
Back east, thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands, know about Dory thanks to the sensationalized dime books and pamphlets, yelling out her western moxie. Their stories, including the taming of a grizzly bear, may be exaggerated. Yet people have become enchanted with the young woman.
In the real world, the stakes are high for Dory as she is helping a friend, Abby Davis, find the killer of her grandfather. Officials suspect Harold Reese, a less than scrupulous businessman who is trying to profit from a train coming to town. He’s prepared to commit any kind of crime. Somehow Dory, with help from her beau, Evan Henson, must find a way to stop Reese before more people are hurt or killed.
Another classic western with respectful romance and women as strong frontier folk from author William Black.
Each book in the Post-Civil War Western Justice series is a standalone story that can be read out of order.

Dory to the rescue
Another wonderful story about Dory and Evan and how they help people. More bad men filled with greed and hate. Along the way they meet a good sheriff and get help from the town folks.

A Fun Read
Well written and full of suspense and action. An engaging story that keeps the reader interested in what will happen next. Looking forward to the next book, to reading others by this author.

Dory and Evan made a good team. She was sure enough humble ol girl. She could rope ride and shoot for certain. Really liked the character and role of the sheriff as well. Really nice turn around for Logan Carter. Very enjoyable read.

An interesting story
This tale was a bit too predictable as the plot was too simple. Not sure it was the authors best effort.

Good simple read.
Black's villains are cruel monsters. Though he uses no cuss words. In his writings, he portrays a real cruel streak. Dory, the tough lady, is pretty believable.

Excitement with Dory......
The Dory adventure continues with loads of action and intrigue. The problems and action Dory gets involved in make for quite a tale.
