Trouble in New Mexico
(2025)(The second book in the Ghost Rider Classic Western Adventure series)
A novel by Travis McGraw
The badge may be fake—but the bullets are real.
When rugged gunfighter Reb Johnson—known for his gray ostrich-plumed hat and twin Schofield pistols—and the deadpan Apache scout Charley Eagle, whose sharp humor hides a darker edge, are handed unsanctioned marshal badges by the cunning Judge Griffin, they know one thing for certain: they’re being sent into hell.
Their destination is Haven, an outlaw stronghold festering in the New Mexico Territory. The mission? Bring down the murderous Travis Wilson gang—stagecoach robbers and cold-blooded killers—and collect the bounty: $1,200 for Wilson, $200 a head for his crew. But Reb’s instincts scream that the Judge isn’t telling the full story.
And he’s right.
Griffin, it turns out, has a personal stake in the fight. He’s bought land north of Haven, banking on the railroad laying track through to Flagstaff. But the iron rails won’t come until the town is cleansed of the cutthroats who now rule it. Worse, Reb and Charley aren’t the first men Griffin has sent. Others rode into Haven… none came back.
With nothing but grit, guns, and their uneasy trust in each other, Reb and Charley ride into a lawless land where the fastest draw decides who lives to see the next sunrise. Along the way, they’ll cross Comanche territory, dodge bushwhackers, and face down killers who answer to no law but their own.
But in a town built on blood and betrayal, can two lone men really make a difference—or are they riding to their graves?
Trouble in New Mexico is a pulse-pounding Western brimming with danger, dry wit, and the fierce loyalty forged in fire. Saddle up for a journey where legends are made, and justice is dealt from the barrel of a gun.
