Description

In this first book of the Luxton Danner Westerns trilogy, Retired US Deputy Marshal Joel Thornton has settled into a peaceful life on his ranch, just outside the Texas town that bears his name. But tranquility is shattered when an old fugitive attacks, seeking vengeance and Thornton’s cattle. Injured in the ensuing gunfight, Thornton sends his daughter, Elizabeth, to find his trusted former partner, Ben Chance.

After seven years in Philadelphia, Elizabeth is determined to help her father, despite her own wounds. Her journey through the rugged Wild West is fraught with danger, and when a band of renegade Indians ambushes her stagecoach, a mysterious gunslinger emerges from the hills to save her.

Drawn together by fate, they set off to locate Ben Chance, unaware that he too is fighting for survival after a brutal confrontation. He is saved from a bloody death by another gunslinger, young and brash, who is on a secret mission of his own.

Packed with action, heart, and the spirit of the Wild West, Gunslingers is a thrilling tale of courage, loyalty, and the unbreakable bond between a father and daughter. Will they reclaim the stolen herd and confront the ghosts of their past, or will revenge come at a cost?
