Description
Jim Rimbaud was a gunsmoke legend on both sides of the Mexican border, and when he rode back to Junction City, silence fell over the town like a dead man's body from a hanging tree. What was the lanky, silent gunfighter doing in town? Only Rimbaud knew why he was there - and he wasn't telling. But whenever Rimbaud arrived in a town, somebody died not much later. Junction City was a powder keg and Rimbaud was the spark waiting to set it off.

Ranchers and nesters teetered on the brink of bloody battle - and Ranger Walt Slade laid his neck on the line to make peace. But a man who's not on one side or the other in a range war is fair game for both - and Slade's welcome to the valley was written in lead and gunsmoke.
