TRACKING THE RUSTLERS & EXPOSING A KILLER

This book appeared as an Avalon hardcover western before Leisure Westerns issued it earlier this spring in mass market paperback as one of their club selections. The book, as all Avalon westerns I've read, is a very interesting book with likable characters moving though a very engaging plot. Attempting to get the right of approval from a western town to establish a stagecoach way station, a couple of men run into real trouble when one is accused of a killing he did not commit. Less than 24 hours after reaching town they must prove all innocence, fortunately one of the town elders, a blacksmith by trade, is a friend and aids them to both track a killer and band of rustlers. The book is equally a western and mystery, a hard combination to beat. An earlier book had these same main characters so this may be possibly part of a series. Whether that be true or not, if this book serves as any indication, then it will be a worth while series. Just settle back and enjoy this one: small town Texas panhandle folks, cattle rustlers, Apache Indians, and 'got your back to the death friends'. An easy book with which to enjoy a few western escape hours. Recommended if you enjoy a good western. Semper Fi.
