About this ebook
Run off his land, a rancher is forced to take the most dangerous job in town: marshal
Julius Lang is chatting with the marshal when the killers ride down Main Street, and he doesn’t have time to reach for his gun before a storm of bullets cuts the lawman down. This is the fourth marshal Montero has lost this year, and the townspeople want Lang to be the fifth. He’d rather return to the safety of his failing ranch, but when a brassy young San Francisco woman comes and claims his land as her own, he’s left with no choice but to take the badge—and be measured for a coffin along with it.
The killers who run this town expect Lang to be just another pushover, but he’s ready to surprise them. This rancher has lost everything, and he will kill to get it back.
