No Country to Ride Alone : And Other Stories Book

An Indian Territory deputy marshal has to bring in not only a bootlegger, but the suspect's sister, an appealing but unpredictable young woman much more dangerous than her outlaw brother. A Texas sheriff finds the horses and cattle in attempted rustler raids are apparently not being moved by human riders. Winter in the Little Rockies is a hard time, in hard country, among hard people. A drifter finds acceptance and companionship on a hill ranch, but must outwit, and ultimately face, a no-quarter bounty hunter looking for the Boss. An Indian's 'bad medicine' is as strong as you believe it is. It can be fatal. These and more in these pages.
