Once a respected lawman in Kansas and Oklahoma, Ty Brannigan ended his career as town marshal of Warknife while he was still young enough to marry, start a family, and raise cattle. Now nearly sixty, he’s a proud husband, father of four, and proprietor of the Powderhorn Ranch on the outskirts of his old stomping grounds. It’s been close to twenty years since Brannigan hung up his six-guns. Now he’s more content wrangling cows than criminals.

But for every remorseless outlaw Brannigan put in jail, noosed, or left the vultures, he made even more enemies. Thieves and killers looking to settle old scores have tracked the ex-lawdog to his ranch. They’ve made the mistake of targeting his wife and children—only to discover that Ty Brannigan enforces his own law with a lightning-fast draw and a deadshot aim . . .

A killer is on the loose in the Arizona Territory. One by one, Tonto Basin ranchers are being murdered for their livestock–and the Cattle Raisers Association has hired two range detectives to catch the culprit. From the looks of them, Stovepipe Steward and Wilbur Coleman are just another pair of high plains drifters. But with their razor-sharp detective skills and rare talent for trouble, they’re the last remaining hope for one young cowboy who’s been arrested for the murders. Stovepipe and Wilbur believe the boy is innocent. In short order the trail of clues leads to a secret canyon hideout, and the duo find themselves in the middle of an all-out range war–with the dirtiest gang of cutthroats, thieves, and outlaws the west has ever known ..

There’s just one mystery left to solve: How will they get out of this alive?

HELL ON THE RANGE

On the outskirts of the town of Mustang Flat is Sean O’Neil’s longhorn ranch, the Rocking S, one of many small spreads across Texas’s western plains. Competition between cattlemen is fierce but friendly—until Colonel Lance Kincaid begins to expand his operation. He pays handsomely to those willing to sell their land and livestock. Those that refuse find their lives under fierce attack—with deadly consequences.

Sean O’Neil is not a man easily intimidated. His brother Johnny, a bareknuckle prizefighter out of Boston, even less so. But as the O’Neil brothers take a stand against Kincaid, violence erupts across the territory, catching them all in the crossfire. Despite Kincaid’s bloody tactics and ambition, there are even more ruthless outfits who aim to start a range war to wipe them all off the map.

To save the people and land they love, the fighting O’Neil brothers will have to show their enemies no mercy—with blood and  bullets.
