The town of Big Creek has a law all its own...
Just outside of Big Creek, Kansas, a cattle outfit from Texas has finally come to the end of the trail - and their tribulations.
Amongst the rough trail-hands is Lonnie Lee, a tough but impatient young man who stands to inherit his father's ranch someday.
So for him, there's no time to relax, gamble and drink to his heart's content.
Accompanying the trail boss, Frank Curtis into Big Creek, it becomes immediately obvious that something's changed since last year.
Frank has heard rumours but he didn't think they were true until now...
It seems the new sheriff in town is none other than Jed Sieber with his gang of outlaws as his deputies, Waco Jennings, Slug Weeden and Trig Watson.
Sieber and his lot are hard on trail-hands and of course, anyone in town who defies their 'law'.
Moreover, as the cattle buyer Charlie Hallam tells Lonnie and Frank, every cattle boss has been robbed of their earnings.
Frank is not a man to take his chances, so when Sieber and his lot try to lead them into a gun trap, they hightail it out of Big Creek.
Even Lonnie knows that they won't let them get away that easily. There's no way he's going back to Texas, not yet, if it means protecting the rest of the outfit.
He'll stomach Big Creek and the drunken antics of Vern Shelton if it means no blood.
But that night, Frank goes missing. And when they return to camp, Lonnie is almost bushwhacked.
Lonnie is damn sure he knows why but with Sieber as the face of the law, the outfit is powerless.
Whatever happened to Frank though, Lonnie is sure of one thing; the robbers didn't get the money.
For once, Lonnie will have to keep his temper and his wits about him if he's to outsmart Sieber and his gang.
And if he plays his cards just right, he might just find Frank and end Big Creek's Killer Law...
Set in the heart of the Wild West, Killer Law is an action-packed and thrilling Western.
