The Mcgill Way R K Mcguire

Jack McGill was a tough young cowboy with a devil may care attitude and a rock steady rifle. He was riding away from a long winter at a line shack in the high foothills. He had six months pay and a keen interest in a few days of drinking and carousing before he set out in search of another cow-puncher job. Life was not very complicated and life was pretty darned good. Jack's vision of the future was limited to some cold beers and at least a kiss from a pretty girl. When Jack rode into the sleepy little town of Southfork that bright spring morning he came upon a robbery in progress. As a witness to bank robbery and murder the young cowhand made the impulsive decision to get involved, changing his life and the lives of many others. Jack is a little surprised to find that he is very cool and efficient in a deadly gun battle. In a grateful little town he figures that a hero's reward should amount to a heck of a vacation from the rigors of the range. McGill finds that being a hero can be more complicated and harvest as many enemies as friends. He is soon on the run from the robber's kin and in search of his new career. What he finds on his journey is gunsmoke and betrayal, steadfast friendship and the love of his life. Fans of John Wayne and Silverado will have a great time with this crisp, fast paced shoot'em up romance.
