The Streets of Vermijo

(2017)
A novel by

 
 
The novelization of Vermijo, the movie, told the story of Frank and Luke Tyler and their battle with the three vicious Lockhart brothers. Frank, a former US Marshal, stepped in to save his grandson from hanging for a crime he didn't commit. And though the odds may have been against them, the Tylers stood firm against the Lockharts and eventually put them down, bringing an uneasy peace to the frightened town...
Now the surviving members of the Lockhart gang have returned, robbed the bank and brutally murdered the bank's manager. With only a woman named Ruby Tucker to keep law and order, they believe they can get away free and clear.
Big mistake.
Frank and Luke, now both US Marshals, ride in to track them down. But Ruby is already on their trail. Furthermore, her past has equipped her with all the skill and courage she needs to track the gang and take them on.
There's just one problem.
The surviving outlaws are doubling back to Vermijo, intending to burn it to the ground in an act of vengeance.
Blood is going to run red on the streets of Vermijo.

Neil Hunter is a pseudonym of the prolific Lancashire-born writer Michael R. Linaker. As Neil Hunter, Mike wrote two classic western series, BODIE THE STALKER and JASON BRAND. Under the name Richard Wyler he produced four stand-alone westerns, INCIDENT AT BUTLER'S STATION, THE SAVAGE JOURNEY, BRIGHAM'S WAY and TRAVIS. Another western, HIGH KILL, was later published in the SUNDANCE series as BOUNTY KILLER. His western output can also be found under the names 'Dan Stewart', 'John C. Danner' and 'Frederick H. Christian', the latter name employed when he ghost-wrote an additional five titles in Frederick Nolan's popular FRANK ANGEL series. Mike has written three 'nasty' horror novels under his own name, but since the late 1980s has become best-known as one of the most popular contributors to Gold Eagle's MACK BOLAN series, chronicling the adventures of PHOENIX FORCE, THE EXECUTIONER and STONY MAN, as well as his own action-adventure series, CADE.
