About this item

Former Union marksman, roving lawman and town tamer, Morgan Clyde, has tamed the wide open, Indian Territory railroad camp, Ironhead Station, but there's one piece of unfinished business left to him that he must handle alone. The Arkansas Traveler, a crazed Confederate sniper and hired assassin is obsessed with killing him. Morgan is the only man to have ever survived one of his bullets back in the Civil War, and the Traveler has vowed that the next bullet from his famous Whitworth rifle will be the one that gets Morgan. Not only is the Traveler waiting for him somewhere out on the Salt Plains of the Arkansas River, but unknown to Morgan, the outlaw Texas George Kingman and his brother have followed him from Ironhead Station since he killed their other brother in a gunfight.



About the Author

Brett Cogburn

BioAward-winning author, Brett Cogburn, was reared in Texas and the mountains of Southeastern Oklahoma. He had the fortune for many years to make his living from the back of a horse, where cowboys still step on frisky broncs on cold mornings, and drag calves to the branding fire on the end of a rope from their saddlehorn. Growing up around ranches, livestock auctions, oilfield rig sites, and backwoods hunting camps filled his head with stories, and he never forgot a one. In his own words, "My grandfather taught me to ride a bucking horse, my mother gave me a love of reading, and my father taught me how to shoot straight. Cowboys are just as wild as they ever were, and I've been fortunate enough to know more than a few."Whether setting his novels in the Old West or the Twenty-First Century, Brett focuses on characters, the real and the eccentric. His list of novels include Panhandle, The Texans, and Forty Loads, Destiny, Texas, Two-Dollar Pistol, and Widowmaker Jones, with more on the way. He holds a BA in English with a minor in history, and currently makes his home with his family on a little ranch in Oklahoma.
