Jim swore that someone would pay for his father's death and no matter what it took the killer would be brought to justice - alive or dead.


The Legacy by Logan Winters

There was nothing special about the J-Bar ranch in Colorado...except that it had thirty-five thousand acres of prime land and its previous owner had just been murdered leaving $50,000 and hidden gold. The whole territory joins the hunt for the missing fortune and violence and murder become commonplace, but it is only when three heirs arrive from the East that true chaos erupts...

He has used intimidation and violence to get the law-abiding town of Laureston exactly where he wants it and he has no intention of letting anyone get in his way. He remains unchallenged...until Tom Harker leads the fightback...

Ransom by Owen G. Irons

Banker Amos Fillmore's life is shattered by the brazen kidnapping of his pretty daughter, Anita. The kidnappers, led by the notorious gunman Earl Weathers, demand a ransom payment that can only be raised if Fillmore raids the assets of his Crater, Arizona bank. In the end, though, even that payment is not enough. Duplicity and violence rage while Anita remains hostage in a cave carved deep into the hills of the desert wilderness. Her safety is secondary to avarice, and even those tasked with upholding justice are inept and overcome with greed. It seems as though neither Anita nor her ransom will ever be recovered from the grip of the desert. That is until the territory's top gun, Laredo, steps in...
