The fools killed his family...then made him a lawman. McBain, broken and beaten from the Civil war, is reluctant to return to his family, as a snake dwells in his belly and he can't get the images out of his mind...until he learns his sister and her family have been murdered. Then it's retribution time. Western author L. J. Martin brings you another wild and wooly tale in the L'Amour tradition. Martin's love for the west shines in every word he writes. His 22 novels have brought compelling reading to so many.
