Publisher's Synopsis
THE TEXAS FRONTIER-A WILD COUNTRY RULED BY THE FAST GUN AND THE QUICK BLADE
True Bowen was out hunting when the Comanche warriors attacked. Quicker than death they killed his folks, burned their West Texas homestead, and kidnapped his sister. With every shovelful of rich red earth he threw on the shallow graves of his folks, Bowen swore he would get her back and make the savages pay for their murderous ways. Armed with an old Hawken single-shot rifle and a belly full of bitter hate, the son of a sodbuster heads west on a vengeance trail.
Tracking the war party by the bloody string of massacres they leave behind, Bowen ends up in an old Spanish mission turned trading post that Texans call Helltown. Run by the ruthless Comanchero leader Rodrigo Shay, life was as cheap as rotgut whiskey there, and the closest thing to law was how fast a man could kill another.
Backed by a trail-tough gang of frontier mustangers with their own score to settle, Bowen takes on Shay and his Comancheros, hungry for payback, and with just one chance to save his sister-or die in the bloody streets of the Texas Helltown.
