JUSTICE
A TUCKER ASHLEY WESTERN ADVENTURE The Bucket of Blood Saloon is robbed, but the kind of hard cases that terrorize 1870s Dakota Territory don't stop there:
the owner is murdered and one of his upstairs girls is abducted.
Tucker Ashley is back in action. This time, he's gotten himself talked into tracking for the posse-but only because the kidnapped girl is his best friend's fiancée. Tucker leads the pathetic posse—made up of a couple of cattle rustlers, a gambler, and a blacksmith nearly too large to sit on a horse—in pursuit of outlaws so brutal that even the Army turned around rather than confront Justice Cauther and
his ruthless gang. "Wendelboe has woven a tale of action, intrigue... readers
who like adventure will enjoy a few hours of escapism." —Booklist on Backed to the Wall,
the first Tucker Ashley Western Adventure
