Cover features a finely painted picture of a gunfighter in the foreground with a six-gun in his hand adjusting his hat, while a dead man lies on the ground behind him with some typical Western-style buildings and onlookers. Very clean, tight copy. Signing on with hank Allison's Bar A outfit was probably one of the biggest mistakes Brad Travis had made in his short career. No one could have told him that he would soon be drawn into a game of intrigue and skulduggery, where the very air reeked of double-dealing and menace. Allison confessed to having good reason for hiring Travis. He had heard that Brad used to pack a star and had earned a reputation to be reckoned with. The rancher was being plagued by cow-thieves, and he was convinced that an ambusher wanted him dead. As if that wasn't enough, there was a foreman who was not to be trusted, a woman who had the ability to wind most men around her little finger, and a gang of rustlers whose law came out of the muzzles of blazing six-shooters.
