Marshal's Pendulum (Grant's Crossing Westerns)

By JM Johnsen

The Clock is Ticking in Grant's Crossing

Marshal William "Jake" Jacobs should be preparing for his wedding to Winnie Grant. Instead, cattle are disappearing, corruption is spreading through Town Hall, and a mild-mannered watchmaker with every clock stopped at 11:59 is quietly setting a deadly plan in motion.
As the town's newly appointed mayor, Sam Watkins uncovers a conspiracy reaching from stolen cattle and fraudulent land claims to an army of hired gunmen waiting outside town. To learn who is behind it, Sam must convince everyone, including the people closest to him, that he has betrayed Jake and the Grant family.
But the man pulling the strings wants more than money. He wants Grant's Crossing, the entire valley, and revenge for a decades-old hanging that left his family name stained with blood. He has waited years for the moment when the Grants would finally pay.
While Sam risks his life inside the enemy's camp, Jake struggles to protect a town that no longer knows whom to trust. And as a ruthless Chicago businessman closes in on the daughter and brother who escaped him, another deadly reckoning races toward Grant's Crossing.
When hired killers descend, hostages are taken, and gunfire erupts in the streets, Jake and Sam must fight their way back to each other before everything they love is destroyed.
In Marshal's Pendulum, old sins return with a vengeance, loyalty becomes a dangerous disguise, and with every swing of the pendulum, justice hangs in the balance.
