Burn Wheelock stared at the dangling well-worn boots as they turned in a slow circle and then slowly unwound. This was his first lynching, and he didn't like it one bit. He was new at the Y'Bar ranch, but he had seen enough of its ways. His own foreman had hit him and taken his new rope to end the man's life. The unwritten code of honor kept Burn from going to the law against his own outfit, but nothing kept him from going his own way. He had already seen what frontier justice could do to a man. Now frontier justice was out to do it to him.

Two shots from Nat Brophy's gun brought down the Hardin brothers. They died as they had lived -- by bloody violence. Their young half-brother, Clem, was left alone to try to restore peace to the range they had turned into a smoking ruin. Clem saw clearly that the only way to do that was to make his own kind of war. On one side, Clem faced Val Meeker and the tough and vengeful crew the elder Hardins had hired to terrorize the nesters. On the other side were those same nesters -- bitter, battle-weary, and anxious to cut down any man named Hardin! Death usually follows death -- and young Clem fought alone until the last savage showdown . . .

Trouble rode the same weary road as cowboy Chick Bronson--a road that took him from one busted range to another. And finally, instead of the job he desperately needed, he found a jail cell at the end of the trail. From that time on, Bronson was the target of suspicions, threats, and merciless beatings at the hands of men who didn't even know him. It looked as if the trail was turning his way at last when he hired out to rancher Vince Kimbrough. But in the range war that suddenly ripped through the valley of Lost Wolf River, it was hard for him to know which side he should take. All he knew was that he had to take a stand somewhere--and that gallons of blood would be shed before the valley would ever know peace again!
