The hanging road - William W Johnstone

Young Matt Bodine
and Sam Two Wolves became blood brothers on the day
the rancher's son saved
the halfbreed's life, forging a bond no one
could ever break. As years
passed, a legend grew of the breed and the
white man who rode together--and
who could jerk killing iron with the
best of them...

Matt and Sam never could refuse a damsel in
distress, so a whole coachload
of lovelies, lead by the fetching
Charity McAllister, seems like a gift from
heaven. But if it looks too
good to be true, it usually is--and in short
order the blood will
start to flow. Matt and Sam rush in anyway and faster
than you can say
"soiled doves," they're up to their necks in
trouble.


Soon it's an all-out war that nearly levels a frontier town, where
Bodine
and Two Wolves face new enemies and run into an old foe they
never thought
they'd see again. And the sweet, lovely Charity
McAllister is the
busiest--and deadliest--bee in the hornet's nest.
