RETURN OF LANCASTER

The year is 1885 when Lancaster arrives on the outskirts of a town named Gallows. Wanting only to water his horse, he kills 3 men, all brothers, with another murdered brother inside the house. The murdered brother's wife is being ruffed up by the 3 men Lancaster kills and she believes, though is not certain, that she murdered her husband, the man inside the house. So begins a tale that could see both Lancaster and Liz Burkett swing from a hangman's noose. The town of Gallows is controlled by a crooked, somewhat egomanical judge, and as fate would have it all four dead men are his sons. No one in the town has much caring for either the judge or his recently departed sons, yet they all fear going against the judge. The only attorney Lancaster can use is a man whom the judge hates. What a plot, one that will keep most western readers turning the pages, especially when the writer is Robert J. Randisi. Mr Randisi is the equal of any of the 'ole time' western writers, his books would find favor now as well 'back then'. They fit right in, between the Ernest Haycox and Luke Short westerns on my shelves. If you enjoy westerns this is an author and a book you will no doubt enjoy. Read on, pards. Semper Fi.
