About This Book

ABOUT SHOWDOWN TRAIL Rock Bannon is a man bred to the Colt and the rugged law of frontier survival. But to a group of naïve homesteaders, his reputation as a gunfighter marks him as an outcast among decent folk. So when a smooth-talking scoundrel comes to camp, no one is ready to listen to Bannon’s warning. He alone knows that Mort Harper’s route leads to certain massacre.
