Wyoming Payday Saturday Night

In the dry Wyoming summer of 1887, grass and water were in short supply and men, pistols drawn, were ready to fight and die for what little the valley had left to offer. But wet or dry, hot or cold, there was always payday Saturday night on which to let off steam and maybe settle a few old scores. Into this volatile landscape rode a tired ex lawman on a big pinto horse. There was thunder in John Dancer's past and lightening in his gunhand and when he once again pinned on his badge, every hand seemed turned against him. However, he was not alone, for Helen Bishop saw her future beside the tired lawman....

Where No Ravens Fly

By: Harry Jay Thorn

After a long hiatus following the death of his wife, Annie Blue, sometime Pinkerton Agent, Deputy US Marshal and freelance detective Lucas Santana is once again called to serve. The smooth-talking, well-read Wyoming private eye is ordered south to Riverton County Texas, to investigate the rumoured growing unrest there. Washington is worried that the ambitions of one man could destroy the peace on that lonely stretch of borderline. The ambitious Frank Vagg controls the local law on both the Mexican side and the Texas side of the Rio Grande, straddled as it is by his headquarters, the township of San Pedro. Santana's attractive contact, Henri Larsson, wary at first of the senior operative with the reputation for action, proves to be more of a match than he would like. Santana attracts trouble like horse manure attracts dung beetles and it isn't too long before he is compelled to use his big Colt. When the lead begins to fly he is joined by fellow Pinkerton agents Joshua Beaufort and Jacob Benbow and the body count grows in the grim, grey borderline county where no ravens fly.

The Far Side of the River

By: Harry Jay Thorn

When US Marshal Harry Boudine buys outlaw Jack Morgan's freedom from Arizona's brutal Yuma Prison, the ex-lawman, soldier and gunfighter finds that he has to repay the debt in spades. Morgan's job is to stem the flow of US arms to the Mexican bandits and persuade the sick Confederate general, John J. De Wolfe, that the South will never again bear arms against its Northern brothers. During the long ride to Mexico, blood and bullets lace the air as Morgan outwits and out-shoots anything the hired gunfighters of Rancho Santa Cruz can throw at him. Even so, death still lurks behind every boulder and the success of Morgan's mission is always in doubt. Then, too, there is the strong and beautiful Stella Owens...

The Shadow Rider

By: Harry Jay Thorn

As Wyoming Territory succumbed to the bleakness of a Western winter Wes Harper, ex-jailbird, disgraced deputy marshal and sometime presidential bodyguard rode into Blackwater Creek. Folks called him the Shadow Rider and he had returned home with a free pardon in his saddlebag, a silver Colt .45 on his hip and vengeance in his heart. His father’s ranch, The Diamond H, was a charred ruin with Southerner Tim Belowen's gunslingers on hand to deter any newcomers to the Powder River range. But Belowen hadn't reckoned on Harper's extraordinary skills and courage as he fought for what was rightfully his...and for the woman he thought he had lost.

Long Ride To Serenity

By: Harry Jay Thorn

This is the story of a range war, the story of a railroad right of way, of murder, greed and corruption littering the long dark trail from the East Coast of America, to south Texas. This is the story of the township of Serenity, and the people who live and die there. Above all it is the story of Louise Kettle a frontier woman and her love for the ageing gunfighter, a living legend, a man with a voice in the White House. He rides that long dark trail leading back from the hollows of western Kentucky, and on to the slaughterhouse they call Shiloh. He is the fastest gun south of the Picket wire, and always behind him is a stone cold killer on a mission from God. This is the story of the pistolero, shootist and gentleman, Rio Jack Fanning: the Undertaker....

The Dark Trail to Nowhere

By: Harry Jay Thorn

Lucas Santana is a freelance range detective working for both the US Marshals Service and the Pinkerton Detective Agency in the 1880s. A wanted man in some States, he takes great care where he rides and has a number of off-the-cuff aliases - and is not too shy about lining his own pockets in order to finance his Wyoming Wildcat ranch. When a number of gold coins surface in South Texas, loot from a long ago three-quarters of a million dollar heist at the end of the Civil War, both Pinkerton and the US Marshals call on his services to find the source of that gold. The problem is, he is not the only one searching for it. Then when a fellow agent is murdered in cold blood, Santana's quest becomes personal and he sets off on the long dark trail to nowhere....
