About This Book

A cattle baron seeking to expand his empire targets a Texas town only to run across a pair of lawmen who can't be bought—and prefer to deal in lead—in the latest rip-roaring, action-packed Tinhorn Western from national bestselling authors William W. Johnstone and J.A. Johnstone.
  TINHORN, TEXAS. HOSTILE TERRITORY.   To wealthy rancher Ira Dunellen, the frontier prairie land surrounding his spread is his for the taking. His cattle need room to roam and the one-horse town of Tinhorn, Texas is standing in his way. On the bank of the Neches River, the small community of merchants is just wasting a precious resource that Dunellen's growing range needs.
 
As stray cattle wander into town, followed by rowdy cowboys, Sheriff Flint Moran and partner Buck Jackson start corralling up any man or beast disrepecting the citizenry and breaking the law. It's clear Tinhorn's lawdogs are running rabid, so Dunellen hires deadly gunslinger Cash Kelly to put them down.
 
But unknown to Dunellen, Cash has a score to settle with Flint. Bullets are going to fly. And the dirt streets of Tinhorn will be soaked in blood . . .
