Summary:
"Two drifters, flush with cash and looking to buy cattle, arrive in town--one nursing a bullet wound he claims he received accidentally when his friend was cleaning his gun. Jackson and Moran are suspicious but have no reason to challenge the drifters' story--until four more drifters show up looking for the first two. Moran may not be lightning quick when it comes to numbers, but reports say the Wells Fargo office was held up by six men... But Tinhorn's troubles are just beginning. Abel Crowe and his three sons are wanted on murder and kidnapping charges. Jesse Slocum has busted out of prison to wreak vengeance on Sheriff Buck Jackson, who killed Slocum's brother. As a rule, Jackson and Moran don't go looking for trouble--it's there when they wake up in the morning. But some days, it just doesn't pay to get out of bed." Page 4 of cover.

Johnstone [in 2004], the Johnstone family is working with a carefully selected writer to organize and complete Mr. Johnstone's outlines and many unfinished manuscripts to create additional novels in all of his series like 'The Last Gunfighter', 'Mountain Man', and 'Eagles', among others. This novel was inspired by Mr. Johnstone's superb storytelling," -- Title page verso.
