Marshal of Arizona (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Arizona in the 1850s was without law and order, a refuge for outlaws and men on the run. The judge was 600 miles away in Santa Fe and taking evil-doers to court a matter of impracticality. Tubac needs a lawman but he'd have no official status, no jail and no court to support him. He'd have to intimidate banditos into leaving his town alone. What could go wrong with that? Bastyan Clegg wore his holsters cross-draw for speed and could snuff a candle at 30 paces. Besides the prettiest girl in town was giving him the eye.
