by Louis L'Amour (Author)

When Gaylord Riley walked away from the Coburn gang, he had money and a dream. He worked hard and built a cabin, gathered a herd of cattle, and fell in love with Marie Shattuck.

But when he is confronted with false accusations of rustling and murder, Riley is forced to defend his new law-abiding way of life. Outnumbered and facing a lynching party, Riley is surprised when his old friends return to lend him a hand. But how can they help him and keep themselves out of jail? With the local marshal already suspicious of Riley, the Coburn gang will have to plan well and move fast. But that shouldn't be a problem. Their reputation was built by doing just that.

Front Jacket

Gaylord Riley once rode with the notorious Colburn gang. He did what he had to do, and was handy with a gun, but the outlaw life led nowhere, and the young man from Texas knew his luck was bound to run out. So he headed for the rugged land near Dark Canyon, determined to set up a ranch and settle down--only to find himself in the middle of a deadly feud between an arrogant cattleman and a ruthless saloonkeeper. And when Riley's outlaw past came back to haunt him, it was only a question of who would kill him first: the cattleman, the saloonkeeper, the local sheriff, or a mob of hotheaded ranchers spoiling for justice at the end of a rope.
