Twenty years is a long time to grieve - and just about long enough to plan a revenge. So when Charley Cole's chance comes, he ain't about to let it go by.Twenty long years ago Charley Cole watched Perce Kilburn go free after murdering Charley's dear wife - and that wasn't even the worst part. Perce took everything from him.But now, Kilburn's son is Wanted Dead or Alive, for the murder of a boy who was only fifteen - and the best bounty hunter in Kansas is Charley Cole - and Charley knows right where a Kilburn will run to hide.Also, the Bounty's so big, fifty other hard men all want that reward for themselves. And you better believe it, they're coming, guns loaded and ready.Thing is, Perce Kilburn ain't the sort just to let his son die. And he won't ride alone. It'll be the showdown of all showdowns when Perce catches up - which suits Charley just fine.It's another action-packed Western from the pen of JV James - with just a hint of romance, a whole lot of fine shooting, and more twists and turns than you can shake a Winchester at. With an ending no one saw coming, this just might be JV's best yet.

Strangely Brown ain't the cleverest feller around, according to most folks from Clearwater. What young Strangely is though, is honest - more honest than all them folks put together. He's a real hard worker too, doing all sorts of odd jobs around town, while hoping to one day marry his sweetheart, the beautiful, kind Abby Snood.When a murderous outlaw tricks Strangely into helping him rob the bank, then delivers him into the hands of the County Sheriff, young Strangely finds himself in real trouble. That big-shot big-city Sheriff has Strangely locked up for murder, and is planning a big public hanging. Worse still, sweet Abby's life hangs in the balance when she's kidnapped by the outlaw.Strangely Brown had better start thinking real fast - and he'd better act even faster.JV James writes classic Westerns filled with twists and turns - and always a touch of romance - perfect for fans of CJ Petit, RO Lane and John Deacon.But as good as those three are, JV's favorite Western authors will always be Louis Lamour and Duane Boehm.
