Synopsis

When a band of merciless, murdering thieves raise hell across the territory, three men committed to justice descend upon them like angels of death. And when the guns fall silent and the smoke clears, the Jackals are always the last men standing.

Comanchero Cullen Brice has escaped from a Huntsville, Alabama, prison, where he was sentenced to hang. And he has sworn revenge against the man who killed his brother and put him behind bars, Texas Ranger Matt McCulloch. Freed from the hangman by his gang, Brice has kidnapped the lawman's daughter Cynthia along with other women and make tracks to the Texas Panhandle. Holing up in The Canyon of Weeping Women, the outlaws plan to sell their captives to Comanche raiders.

Joined by bounty hunter Jed Breen and retired cavalry sergeant Sean Keegan, McCulloch rides hard for Texas, determined to save his daughter from Brice. But Cynthia isn't her father’s little girl anymore. And hell hath no fury like a woman raised by a Ranger who's just as deadly as the trio of Jackals gunning for Brice's comancheros . . .

Another winner in the Jackal series. The book opens claiming the trio had added a fourth "Jackal", though who that is, is not revealed to the end. The trip to that end is quite a tale. The tale is more the direction, I believe, the Johnstone Clan of writers needs to head towards. There have been sim......more
