Der Liebespaar Mörder - bk1467; Karl Müller Verlag; J.T. Edson; pocket_book; 1977
Although young and unfamiliar with outlaw-ridden West Texas, Texas Ranger Alvin "Cap" Fog proves that he is every bit the lawman his legendary grandfather, Dusty Fog, was
When it looks as though the brutal killer of Eloise Charmain might buy his way out of paying for his crime, using a crooked lawyer, a faked alibi, bribery, and murder, the justice riders of Company Z embark on a trail of vengeance
After killing a Texas Ranger at a "chicken ranch," grizzled outlaw Rapido Clint and his partner Comanche Blood escape to a Mexican hacienda, where the law catches up with them and a bloody standoff with the Rangers ensues
They called him Chopper, because of the way he destroyed his victims. Peace Officers claimed he was the most ruthless hired killer since Beguinage ... Then he made a mistake. He gunned down two of the elite Company Z, and suddenly not only the boys of Z were after him, but also Rapido Clint. The hunt spread to England, the trail of Mr. J. G. Reeder, and Clint and Reeder found they had an identical problem – to discover the identity of Chopper ... then destroy him! J.T. Edson was a former British Army dog-handler who wrote more than 130 Western novels, accounting for some 27 million sales in paperback. Edson’s works - produced on a word processor in an Edwardian semi at Melton Mowbray - contain clear, crisp action in the traditions of B-movies and Western television series. What they lack in psychological depth is made up for by at least twelve good fights per volume. Each portrays a vivid, idealized “West That Never Was”, at a pace that rarely slackens.
