<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>JOHNSTONE. KEEPING THE WEST WILD.<br></b><br> Not every Western hero wears a white hat or a tin star. Most of them are just fighting to survive. Some of them can be liars, cheaters, and thieves. And then there's a couple of old-time robbers named Slash and Pecos . . . <p/> <b>Two wanted outlaws. One hell of a story.<br></b><br> After a lifetime of robbing banks and holding up trains, Jimmy "Slash" Braddock and Melvin "Pecos Kid" Baker are ready to call it quits--though not completely by choice. Sold out by their old gang, Slash and Pecos have to bust out of jail and pull one last job to finance their early retirement . . . <p/> The target is a rancher's payroll train. Catch is: the train is carrying a Gatling gun and twenty deputy US marshals who know they're coming. Caught and quickly sentenced to hang, their old enemy--the wheelchair-bound, bucket of mean, Marshal L.C. Bledsoe--shows up at the last minute to spare their lives. For a price. He'll let them live if they hunt down their old gang, the Snake River Marauders. And kill those prairie rats--with extreme prejudice . . .<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>William W.
