The Maverick Gun - Paperback

by Lee Martin (Author)

When an old flame sends for Wes Caron, he can't help but wonder why. He soon finds out: It's the lady's dad, Mr. Hollis, who needs him. The ruthless, land-grubbing Gruber clan own a ranch nearby and they're eager to augment their holdings-even if it means killing everyone in the territory. Hollis hadn't liked Wes before, and he isn't sure about him now, but when Wes takes on some of the Grubers's most infamous hired guns, Hollis quickly comes around. And he isn't alone: Cindy Taylor, daughter of another terrorized rancher, had been leery of Wes's trail-wise ways, but then Wes saves Cindy's skin more than once, and she'll stand beside him in any fight. Unfortunately, their support may not be enough. The Grubers are on a bloodthirsty rampage, and Wes must fend off an army of mercenary sharpshooters. With only his fast gun and a handful of ranchers to help him, Wes knows the Gruber clan could make this battle the last in a very short-and deadly-war...
