<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>THE WIDOWMAKER MEETS POKER ALICE.<br></b><br> <b>The most famous lady gambler of the Old West teams up with Widowmaker Jones in a doomed search for lost treasure, a deadly trek through the desert--and a dangerous alliance with the greatest gunslingers in history . . .<br></b><br> <b>IT'S A MATCH MADE IN HELL.<br></b><br> Card player extraordinaire Poker Alice knows when to hold 'em, when to fold 'em, and when to team up with master gunman Newt "Widowmaker" Jones. She's betting on Jones to protect her--and her money--on a treasure hunt in the California desert. Legend has it that a shipwreck is buried in the Salton sands. Some say it's a Spanish galleon that got stuck when the sea ran dry. Other says it's a Chinese junk full of pearls or a Viking ship filled with Aztec treasure. Either way, a lot of very mean and dangerously violent folks would kill to find it. Which is why Poker Alice needs the Widowmaker. In this game, it's winner takes all. Losers die . . . <p/> <b>Praise for Spur Award winner Brett Cogburn</b> <p/> <b>"Fans of frontier arcana will revel in Cogburn's readable prose and lively characters."</b><br> <b>--<i>Publishers Weekly</i> on <i>Rooster</i></b> <p/> <b>"Cogburn amazes and astounds." <br>--<i>Booklist</i></b><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Charles A.
