Nightfall at Little Aces — Ralph Cotton

THE WIDOW
For the last eight years, the folks of Little Aces, New Mexico, have known Emma Vertrees simply as the wife of the recently murdered sheriff. But Emma has more in common with the wrong side of the law than her neighbors could possibly imagine.

THE FUGITIVE
A member of the notorious Hole-in-the-wall Gang, Memphis Warren Beck is on the run from railroad detectives. When fate reunites him with a woman he never expected to see again, Beck risks his freedom-- and his life--for a second chance with her.

THE LAWMAN
Arizona Ranger Sam Burrack is passing through what he thinks is a peaceful town. But the secrets and lies that have caught up to Emma and Beck bring violence in their wake, leaving only Burrack to dispense justice.
