Synopsis

Johnstone Country. The Good Die Young. The Bad Die Younger. When Smoke Jensen is summoned to a small Texas town under siege by a scourge of kill-crazy bandits, volunteers line up to take out the Mountain Man. Being Smoke Jensen, he wouldn't have it any other way. A gunshot wound has robbed Audubon, Texas, of its top lawman at the worst possible time. Clete Lanagan and his band of outlaws have hatched a scheme to plunder the town bank of a small fortune in railroad money. When the acting sheriff, Dalton Conyers-half-brother of Smoke's niece Rebecca-is unable to raise a posse to hunt down Lanagan's gang, he calls on Smoke for help. But with so much cash at stake, Lanagan won't go down without a fight. With a bounty on his head, Smoke finds himself marked for death by a legendary gunslinger, a wrathful ranch hand bent on revenge for his brother's death, and an army of trigger-happy recruits with nothing to lose but their lives. Live Free. Read Hard.

Not the best in the series but ok. It had some new angles that made it enjoyable and like always, it's a western. Not every author can be as good as Louis L'Amour. I have followed Johnstone since forever and will continue but not every series anymore.......more
