Bullet Creek by Ralph Compton

Compton writes a very good story in the style of Zane Grey. Thrilling fast-paced tales of the old west.

RELUCTANT RETURN TO DEADWOOD.

As Cas Everett returns to Deadwood it is with reluctance due to the 'law' being unwelcome in this out-of-control frontier, gold mining sinkhole of a town. With a lifelong profession of bounty hunter and law enforcer, he will not at all be welcome. Cas has returned home to Texas for a visit, only to find his entire family has been murdered and their home torched to the ground. For most of his adult life Cas has lived as a bounty hunter, chasing only the worst criminals to either kill or incarcerate. Someone from his past has decided to get back at him by murdering his entire family. But remorseful Cas sees only one way to handle this and that is by returning to Deadwood Gulch to settle up with the evil people involved. Along the way the writer, John Edward Ames, doles out not only interesting facts of the west but equally facts on Deadwood. The book is very well written holding the reader's attention. As another in the long list of "Ralph Compton" westerns this one scores a success. Recommended. Semper Fi.
