A hard-riding, bullet-fast collection of twenty raw Western yarns from Paul L. Thompson — the kind of no-holds-barred tales that built a Western legend.
U.S. Marshal Shorty Thompson doesn’t chase shadows — he hunts men. From the blood-soaked train ride hauling a vengeful killer back to the hangman’s noose, to the brutal range wars where one farmer stands alone against a cattle baron’s hired guns, Shorty and a cast of hard-bitten lawmen, outlaws, and frontier women deliver frontier justice the only way they know how: fast, final, and final.
Packed with train robberies, barroom shootouts, desperate escapes, and cold-eyed revenge, these twenty stories ride the high lonesome from Colorado to Canada and back again. You’ll meet Molly Muldoon killing her first man, Dorothy Savage living up to her name, crooked bankers getting their due, and Shorty Thompson himself — short in stature, tall in grit — proving once more that the law may be slow, but the marshal never is.
If you like your Westerns lean, mean, and loaded for bear — this is your brand.
Twenty hard-hitting tales. Zero wasted words.
THE TWENTY — Shorty Thompson rides again.
