Marshal’s Last Stand

By Onias Bondo

Jones Barnes – former slave and Civil War veteran – never wanted to become Marshal. But after ridding his town of notorious outlaw Fast Kelly once and for all, the job falls into his lap. Despite facing prejudice for the colour of his skin, he earns respect from his unrivalled reputation for cleaning up the West.

Partnered with his old friend Shaw MacGregor, the pair are dispatched to Wild Town, where the greedy Griffin and his henchman have been killing families who won’t give their land to him. Discovering there’s a secret goldmine beneath the Garcia family’s ranch, Griffin has them ruthlessly murdered – apart from the beautiful Mrs. Garcia, who he plans to marry, whether she likes it or not.

Jones – working undercover as Tom Brad – immediately bonds with Mrs. Garcia, and vows he won’t rest until there’s a noose around Griffin’s neck. Hatching an ingenious plan with MacGregor, the three unlikely companions embark on a dead man’s mission to bring the gang-leader to justice…
