Man from Nowhere, The

From the legendary Johnstones, the first in a striking new Western series set in the rugged mountains of California, where a young man with no name and no family finds himself in the wrong place at the wrong time -- but ready to do the right thing. Nobody knows who he is or where he came from. Until the day this stranger, who calls himself John Doe, stands up for a town besieged by crime and corruption - and forges a legend. An army of federal lawmen are converging on the small California mountain town of Ullet to catch a train. The cargo: a collection of ruthless thieves and killers bound for hard labour and the hangman. The folks of Ullet have all been evacuated to a nearby farm for their own safety until the train departs. But this band of deputies and their charges aren't going to jail. They're all in cahoots, planning the heist of a lifetime. And any honest lawman who tries to stop them will get a bullet in the brain or a knife in the back. Only they didn't reckon on facing a hardcase who calls himself John Doe. He doesn't know where he was born or who his parents are. What John does know is the difference between right and wrong - and how to enforce the law with guts and guns.
