In this racing new installment in bestseller Ralph Compton's the
Gunfighter series, Marshal John Beck is a man who has spent his career
dispensing justice throughout the West, but now the justice is
personal.
Marshal John Beck was the law in the dangerous town of Mother Lode,
Arizona. On his own, he'd managed to keep bandits, rustlers, and
desperados at bay. It was a tough job for one man to handle, but he made
it work...until the day Bram Hogan and his Brickhouse Gang got the drop
on the lawman.
They beat Beck to within an inch of his life and dropped him in the
desert where nothing but a slow, painful death awaited him. But the gang
underestimated Beck. Even at his lowest point, he found a way to
survive.
Now, he's coming back and anyone who stands against him is going to ride
the hammer down to the grave.
