Deadman (Paperback)

When Stan Mitchell rode into Mitchell Valley to kill the crazy gunman who had crippled his right hand and killed two of his friends, little did he know he was only scratching the surface of a massive take over of the upper Mitchell Valley. He had planned to meet the gunman, kill him and immediately return to his marshall's job in Texas.

Instead, he is fighting for his life after his half-brother puts a price on his head. His vengeance turns to a desire to save Dogtown and aids inhabitants from disaster-something that will destroy the town.

A mysterious boss is trying to take control of the northern end of Mitchell Valley and has enlisted the help of the town's marshal and a leading merchant. Killings, barn burning, rustlings are unexplained as the small ranchers are driven away from their land, one way or the other.

Only after he finds the reason; and who the mysterious boss is, does he have a chance, risking his own life, to solve the problem.
