Flavorful Western Action

This installment of Ralph Cotton's Sam Burrack series is the usual blend of action, attention to detail, well drawn characters and some decidely black comedy. The Arizona lawman has stirred up trouble by dragging a bank robber into a small town and asking the sheriff to hold him in jail. The problem is that the robber is one of the younger brothers of some "legitimate" ranchers who run a rag tag band of bandits. They spend a lot of their ill-gotten money in town and the sheriff and some of the townsfolk figure they're OK since they do their banditry elsewhere. As the bandit leader arrives in town with a trick up his sleeve and tension builds, a ragged army of of desert dwelling outlaws are preparing to attack the town. A real pickle of a situation. Know this about a Ralph Cotton western, expect the unexpected.
