A STING SO DEADLY

After weeks of casing a ranch for its prized remuda, a gang of horse thieves pillage everything—leaving the owner’s wife dead. Before the distraught man can drown himself in booze, Harry Pendergast of the Denver Detective Agency offers him a chance for vengeance. Because this time, the victim is Brad Storm…aka the Sidewinder.

It seems that Brad’s ranch isn’t the only one that’s been brutally hit. There’s a huge reward to track down the powerful thieves. But the hunt won’t be easy, taking the Sidewinder into dangerous territories and bloody battles. So when a showdown in Wild Horse Valley becomes imminent, Brad hatches a plan—one he hopes will have the villains recoiling in fear before the Sidewinder strikes back.  
Jory Sherman (1932–2014) was the Spur Award–winning author of hundreds of novels, including the westerns The Medicine Horn, Song of the Cheyenne, and the Pulitzer Prize–nominated Grass Kingdom. He was also the recipient of the Owen Wister Award for Lifetime Contributions to Western Literature. View titles by Jory Sherman
