Publisher's Synopsis
Are you ready for hot lead and cold-blooded vengeance? In 1877, mountain man and hunter Ben Jonson saves Sudden Sam Stone from drowning. Stone repays Ben by stealing Ben's mule and a rifle. Ben considers tracking Stone down, but decides the theft isn't worth killing a man over. Later, during a visit to a trading post, Ben discovers his now-abandoned mule and rifle. He learns Sudden Sam is no ordinary man, he's a vicious outlaw and a cold-blooded killer who takes whatever he wants. Ben runs into Stone again during a robbery attempt, but this time they're on the same side, and an unlikely alliance begins. Ben figures Stone still owes him for the mule and rifle, but Sudden Sam sees it a different way. Throw in a beautiful faro dealer, a murder or two, and a kidnapped mine owner's daughter and you have a recipe for hot lead and cold-blooded vengeance. Survival is for the beautiful and the bold . . . as long as they're the baddest! Think of Mickey Spillane's hero Mike Hammer set back in the 1800s and you'll get the flavor of Along Showdown River.
