Publisher's summary

Lew Sherry and Pete Lang accept an offer they simply can't resist. Oliver Wilton is willing to pay the cowboys $1,000 a day for ten days to protect him from danger that has him living in a state of terror. A seafaring man has arrived at the inn in town and has made no secret of the fact that he's come to settle a score with Wilton. In the meantime, Wilton's niece, for whom he manages a half-million dollar trust, has been seen target practicing with a gun equipped with a silencer. Oliver Wilton has reason to fear for his life, but can two unwitting cowboys save it?

Second story was one of the best Mac Brand stories I have read or listen to.

If you like mysteries and/or western stories this is a good book. I especially liked the second-story the steel box.

Riveting Story

Such wonderful characters. How did he bring them to life in my mind with such vibrance? I couldn't leave this book without wishing for more. Max Brand will live forever in his stories after such a short life.
