A Short Rope for a Tall Man — Nate Morgan

Seeking redemption, a reformed thief hits the Dead Man's Trail in pursuit of a vicious outlaw in this first gun-blazing adventure in a new series!

The most wanted man in the West, Big Bob Magraw has earned his reputation as a thief and killer. With a gang of trigger-happy desperadoes willing to do his bidding, McGraw has robbed banks, stagecoaches, and railroads, raised hell ravaging towns, and left bodies littering the streets in his wake.

Carson Stone rode with McGraw's gang exactly once, minding their horses during a bank robbery, before quitting. But with the marshal of El Paso, Texas, gunned down in cold blood as the bandits escaped, he's been judged guilty by association. To clear his name, Carson teams up with bounty hunter Colby Tate to track down the outlaws -- now scattered across the frontier -- and bring them to justice. And Carson must convince his partner to bring Magraw in alive or he'll never escape the shadow of the hangman's noose. . .
