Some of those on board the train had reasons of their own… Read More

EXCERPT: He was a big man, wide-shouldered, with the lean, hard-boned face of the desert rider. There was no softness in him.

He had been sitting motionless and still on his buckskin for more than an hour. Patience was the price of survival, he knew that, and often the first to move was the first to die. His name was Hondo and he could almost smell the trouble coming. Somewhere holed up in an arroyo were renegade Apaches, waiting . . . - and - "That's Hondo Lane!" Lowe came to his feet quickly and caught Hondo by the shirt… Read More
