Stranger in a Strange Town

Somewhere between Abilene and San Antonio Adam Steele became a man of property. Not a settled man – this property was as mobile as he was. Two of the finest white Arab stallions he'd ever seen, bought on an impulse at a trailside auction just outside the small town of Braddock, Texas. Two stallions that conferred on him a certain pride of possession as he led them into town.Trouble was, the rule may be that possession is nine parts of the law but the law in Braddock was pretty unruly. And possession turned out to be strictly temporary – for Steele and for a whole succession of new owners. Most of whom found out that life could be a pretty temporary business as well.
