From the back cover: Slocum thought he was dead and gone to heaven. For $2000 all he had to do was guard two Boston dudes who'd bought themselves a claim to a gold mine. Even better, the journey from Denver to Leadville was the wildest trip Slocum ever took. The two dudes had decided to celebrate by bringing along Mabel and her entire bawdy house. Slocum was in heaven--until some claim jumpers tried to send him there. But some things Slocum just wouldn't take lying down. The was a solid Slocum read, mostly due to the good writing. The only fault I have with it is that it is a bit weak on suspense and action, and the plot is not too sophisticated. There are however plenty of women who tend to keep Slocum busy and make things pretty interesting. As I said before, the writing is good and it makes for an entertaining read. 221 pages. ****
