Law at Angel's Landing — Wayne D. Overholser

The mining town of Angel's Landing grew up around a gold strike in the hills of Colorado. Mark Girard had grown up during the boom period, and had witnessed it play out. Now he led a simple, quiet life with a relatively easy job as sheriff. Then the worst thing that could happen did happen: there was a new gold strike on Banjo Creek. Everyone realized that the boom days would return, and the question became whether or not Mark could handle them.
