Riders of the Silences by Max Brand (Frederick Faust)

Description from the dust jacket: Pierre le Rouge had come down from the far north to avenge his dying father, who had been fatally wounded by the terrible McGurk. But before Pierre could meet the invincible gunman, he was the victim of an accident. He would have died, buried in a snowdrift, if Jim Boone had not found him. Boone's son had just been killed in a train robbery, and despite the protests of the other outlaws, Boone made Pierre a member of his gang, replacement for his dead son. And so Pierre rode with the wild marauders, all skilled gunfighters, including Boone's wild young daughter. At last the scene was set for the showdown between Pierre and McGurk, but even when it had taken place and a wounded McGurk left the range, the blood feud had not been settled. One of them had to be destroyed. Max Brand is at his gripping best in this story about a band of reckless, hard-riding killers who swept through the shadows of a terrified range.
