The book I'm using for Friday 56 and Book Beginnings is....
Gun Boss of Triangle - Barry Cord
Synopsis(Back Cover)
Jim Carmody, gun boss of the Triangle heard, tries to deliver the cattle, but finds the buyer dead. He wants to take the heard back where it came from - but decides to wait for definite word from his partner back home. But when a rival rancer attacks his cattle and murders his men he goes on a rampage of revenge.
Book Beginning.....
Jim Carmody turned the roan against the driving rain and crossed Douglas' muddy street to the small rectangle of light painting the mud in front of the Timberlake Stables.
This was the end of a thousand-mile trail, but the fact did not lighten the Texan's weariness, nor rid him of a nagging irritation that had made him taut-nerved and surly.
Page 56.....
Jim holstered his gun and took a swift step forward. A cream sombrero had slipped from jet black hair and lay beside the crumpled figure.
It was Lennie Masters!
I am reminded of books I used to read. Now I'm intrigued. Thanks for sharing, and for visiting my blog.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've read a Western since Louis L'Amour when I was a teen. I hope you are enjoying this one. This week I am spotlighting Triple Crown by Felix Francis. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteA Western probably isn't for me, but I hope you have fun with it!
