Publisher's summary

Rancher Blair Bishop of Two Forks, Texas, has too many enemies...and they are closing in on him. Macy Modock, whom Bishop sent to prison 10 years ago, is out of the hoosegow. Modock is returning to Two Forks along with his sidekick, who is known to be a mean gunman. Also arrayed against Bishop is rival cowman Clarence Cass, who is running his animals on Bishop's land. Complicating matters, Cass' daughter, Jessie, and Bishop's son, Allan, are in love. Macy Modock, determined to get even with the man who sent him to prison, schemes with Cass to ruin Bishop. The black-hearted pair lay claim to untitled lands Bishop uses to graze his cattle - a plan that leads to a deadly confrontation in which two men will die.

I miss Kelton

I thought I read or listened to all of Kelton’s books. This was a great surprise to again listen to a Master story writer and narrator. It is brief but the characters well developed into a suspenseful and dramatic ending.

SHOTGUN

This book grabs your attention and keeps it. Macy Modoc gets out of prison and comes home to two forks Texas. Blair Bishop is the reason he was put in jail to start with. Macy wants to get even with Blair for the past ten years. Another guy Clearance Cass doesn't like Blair either. They team up. I was pulling for Macy Modock at first. I like this type of storyline. A rich rancher running and controlling everything and everyone finds out there not as big as they thought. I changed by the end of the book and didn't link Macy. Macy didn't care who he hurt to get what he wanted. This is an excellent book. Jack Garrett does a great job narrating this book. If my review is any help will you please click on the helpful link below. Thank you.
