Plains Murder - Paperback

by J. R. Roberts (Author)

A Russian baron wants a taste of the American frontier. And it's up to the Gunsmith to make sure that the Wild West lives up to its dime-novel reputation.

Gunfights and Injuns. Wild women and whiskey. Authenticity is what the baron wants. And that's just what he gets-right down to the grisly murders of his own men. As the official tour guide, it's Clint's job to track down the knife-wielding killer in a bid to keep the baron from taking up permanent residence...on Boot Hill.
