博客來Tenth in the Tales of the Old Wild West series by prolific western author Doyle Trent.
In the tradition of the John Wayne classic westerns and legendary television series Gunsmoke and Bonanza.
The Cheyenne’s ancient rifle misfired. Otherwise, Todd Kildow would have met his death face down among the forest and rocky outcroppings, his scalp at the Cheyenne’s belt. Todd spun at the click of the hammer, his six-gun out of his holster and drawn on a spot between the red-man’s glittering, hate-filled eyes, while the Cheyenne brave stood tall and defiant, accepting his death. But Todd couldn’t squeeze off the trigger. Not on a helpless man. At that moment, a bond formed between them-a bond of brotherhood. A VOW OF VENGEANCE
Somewhere in the untamed vastness of the Colorado Territory, one of the three skulking gunsels who had murdered Todd’s folks-cut them down for a mare and a loaf of fresh-baked bread-was loose and roaming free. Todd had already gunned down the man’s two partners. Now a grim-jawed, vigilante-hating, law-and-order sheriff was hunting him. It was a matter of time. With the help of his Cheyenne brother and the sorrel-haired firecracker called Marrie who’d claimed Todd as her man, he’d level his Remington on the third man and bring him to justice...the law’s justice-or his own.
