High Noon for McAllister (A Rem McAllister Western)

by Matt Chisholm

Overview

They called themselves the Cowboys. They had the whole country tied up tight. A man couldn’t carry a poke of gold or shift an ore wagon without them knowing. They had spies everywhere and a hundred guns to back them. Only one man dared to stand against them. Rem McAllister. A man who had quit law enforcement. A man who hated pinning his badge back on. And when they trampled on him, humiliated him, kidnaped and threatened to kill his stepson, they made a big and fatal mistake.
