THE REVENGE OF TOM GRABEN
Frank Graben rode away from Crazy Cora’s shack with his back full of buckshot, clinging to the saddle and clinging to life. He soon found the trail blocked by four local outlaws who had followed him from a place called Turley’s, where he had been forced to kill a mean young punk who tried to take his horse. He was too weak from his terrible wound and from loss of blood to pull his gun from the holster when the four outlaws started shooting at him.
Then Tom Graben, the tough older brother Frank hadn’t seen in ten years, appeared in the rocks above the trail and started shooting.

DEAD MAN RIDING
In this Eastwoodish western, no one in that troubled part of Texas had ever heard of anyone named Fanton, but that was the name prodigal brother Hawk Spradlin whispered just before he pulled his gun on a quiet, grim stranger and got himself killed.
It happened one evening just before dark in Hoot Spradlin’s dugout store and saloon. The skinflint rancher was saving his coal oil until full darkness forced him to light a lamp, and he could not see the stranger clearly. But he got the drop on the tall man from behind with his shotgun, disarmed him and with the help of his lawless riders he hung Fanton to a cottonwood tree and left him hanging there that dark stormy night.
The next morning the noose hung empty from the cottonwood limb. The man they had hung was gone. Hoot Spradlin ordered his men to hunt Fanton down and kill him. They didn’t know whether they were hunting a real man or a ghost. But one thing was certain – he could ride and shoot like the devil.

There had been an uneasy truce for many years, but the Haggan boys were resstless and wanted to get things going again.
They ambushed Luke’s oldest brother, Matt and then killed the other three, Johnny, Mark and young Ben. But they made their biggest mistake when they failed to kill the LAST OF THE FIGHTING FARRELLS.

REBEL WITH A GUN
He was fifteen when the Civil War started, nineteen when it ended. His parents were dead by then, their farm sold for the taxes. The girl he loved had married a boy he hated. Nothing seemed right.
So he headed for Texas with a disreputable old snake oil peddler and a beautiful blonde with a jealous husband and a dangerous secret that could get them all killed.
Even though he had ridden with Quantrill and Bloody Bill, he was not like the others. Many of them were not the only bushwhackers who flourished during the war. Men just like them had waved the Union flag and used it to cloak their crimes, and now that the fighting was over not all of them would be content to lay down their arms and return to their former pursuits. Some, like their southern counterparts, would become outlaws. Many on both sides had never been anything else, and for them the war had just been a continuation of a life of lawlessness and violence. Now they would use the unsettled conditions in the wake of the war to camouflage their activities.
Of course, many would go west, especially to Texas. For years men had been going to Texas who were wanted or not wanted in other states. There was a well-known saying— “Gone to Texas.” It usually applied to men who had gone there a jump ahead of the law.

Dan Whitton’s father was the most hunted and desperate killer the west had ever known—not hunted by the law, but by the man who had destroyed his chance of living in peace with the girl he loved.
Now Bob Whitton was dead, and the man who had finally succeeded in having him killed was still alive, fat and prosperous and gloating in his triumph, and already planning a similar fate for Bob Whitton’s son, Dan.
So Dan Whitton strapped on his guns and headed for the wild Cimarron country where his father had spent so much time, hunted by his enemies. Those who were still alive would soon be hunting Dan Whitton.
