Outlaws of Shy Valley

Greed runs deeper than gold…

Summoned by an old friend, Steve ‘Rusty’ McCade heads for Longdrop, to investigate rumours of white men collaborating with Indians.

McCade arrives to find his friend dead and the town under the control of a man called Garrard, backed by dead shot Sodbuster Foden and the law in his pocket.

Garrard has been making life difficult for the nearby Shy Valley, a settlement of farmers and miners, causing them to become little more than outlaws.

Meanwhile, the US army arrives in town, hot on the trail of a group of Indians led by the fearsome Clap Jaw.

Could Garrard’s interest in Shy Valley and the sightings of Clap Jaw be connected?

And can McCade dodge bullets, arrows and the law long enough to find the answers?

Outlaws of Shy Valley sees Steve McCade return in a classic western, reminiscent of Zane Grey and Louis L’Amour.
