Desert Hell - Paperback

by J. R. Roberts (Author)

Crossing the Great Desert in a stagecoach wasn't Clint Adams' idea of a good time. Especially in the company of Red Taggert, a charming but dangerous outlaw who's wanted for murder. Clint has to escort the gentleman to Phoenix-where justice awaits with a noose.

But the Gunsmith has a surprise waiting for him. Taggert's band of outlaws are closing in. And they have a different notion of justice. They want to make Red Taggert a free man... and the Gunsmith a dead one.
