The Bucket of Blood Saloon is robbed, but the kind of hard cases that terrorize 1870s Dakota Territory don't stop there: the owner is murdered and one of his upstairs girls is abducted.

Tucker leads the pathetic posse-made up of a couple of cattle rustlers, a gambler, and a blacksmith nearly too large to sit on a horse-in pursuit of outlaws so brutal that even the Army turned around rather than confront Justice Cauther and his ruthless gang.…mehr

Autorenporträt
C. M. Wendelboe entered the law enforcement profession when he was discharged from the Marines as the Vietnam War was winding down. In the 1970s, he worked in South Dakota. He later moved to Gillette, Wyoming, and found his niche, where he remained a sheriff's deputy for over twenty-five years. In addition, he was a longtime firearms instructor at the local college and within the community.During his thirty-eight-year career in law enforcement, he served successful stints as police chief, policy adviser, and other supervisory roles for several agencies. Yet, he has always been most proud of "working the street" in the Wild West. He was a patrol supervisor when he retired to pursue his true vocation as a fiction writer.Wendelboe is a prolific author of murder mysteries with a Western flair and traditional Westerns. He writes the Spirit Road Mysteries, the Bitter Wind Mystery series, as well as the Nelson Lane Frontier Mysteries, and the Tucker Ashley Western series. Wendelboe now lives and writes in Cheyenne, Wyoming.
