"Borden Chantry never wanted to be a marshal; he'd planned on wearing the badge just until he could raise enough money to buy cattle. But he was good at his job: riding herd on horse thieves, drifters, and drunken cowpokes. Now a well-dressed stranger lay dead in the street, apparently the victim of a cold-blooded murder. With few clues to go on, Chantry knows only one thing: the killer lives in his town."--P. [4] of cover.
