Synopsis

The territorial governor has sent three lawmen to clean up the mess that is Chico, New Mexico - and not one of those lawmen has made it out alive. A crooked sheriff has the terrified denizens of Chico under his boot heel, so the governor turns to John Henry Sixkiller, sending him undercover as a gunman for hire.

So far, Sixkiller has bloodied his opponents in every battle he's fought in the Southwest. But this one could affect the entire country: A group of merciless land pirates have been hiding behind Chico's brutal sheriff. Their goal: to make the entire territory hostage and sell it lock, stock and barrel to Mexico - gleefully slaughtering anyone who gets in the way...

Not credible The author created a platform that could not have credibly existed to write an unbelievable tale of blood and guts. The first two in this series were marginally more credible but this flies over the top.......more
